Currently, there is an unequal participation of men and women in management positions around the world, with the predominant participation of men. In this context, it is relevant to understand the impact that the participation of women in management positions has on different variables, including the profitability of firms. Thus, the objective of this research is to study this impact. To do this, first, statistics on the representation of women in managerial positions around the world are presented, with emphasis on the Peruvian case. Subsequently, a review of the academic literature is carried out to develop a theoretical framework on the determinants of the impact that is being studied and to consolidate empirical evidence regarding the results of the reviewed evaluations. Based on this, this study demonstrates that the evidence regarding the impact of the participation of women in management positions on the profitability of companies is mixed. The literature review carried out shows that the type of impact (positive or negative) depends on the characteristics of the environment where women work, as well as their personal characteristics.
