Women and work: observations on the UK and Hong Kong (Peter Mathieson, WEF)

ICC, the tallest skyscraper in Hong Kong, is seen in Kowloon Peninsula, as a woman ascends on an escalator inside the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, where the Asian Financial Forum is held in Hong Kong, China January 18, 2016.

Two years ago, I moved to my current role after working for 30 years in the United Kingdom, where my experience was as a doctor working in the National Health Service (NHS) and as a medical teacher, researcher and latterly academic leader in the university system. Now I lead a university in Hong Kong. The hypothesis that I explore in this article is that my chromosomal make-up has given me an unfair advantage in all these roles.
