This is what McKinsey senior partners Kweilin Ellingrud, Lareina Yee, and María del Mar Martínez call "the broken rung," and its effects compound throughout women's careers.

For millions, a major component of the American dream is to start one’s own company and, ultimately, to become one’s own boss. The question is—just how exactly does one do that?

What she did have, however, was a sense of drive—of grit—and of a burning desire to achieve her dream.
