===Our research===
We examined all leaders in companies from 1980-2016 who have the titles of either chariman, CEO, CFO, COO, CIO, CTO, board member, President, Vice President, Founder, and Director. Of company members with those titles, only 29.8% were women. Of those women leaders, 22% were CEOs, 14% chairwomen, 27% CFOs, 26% COOs, 31% CIOs, 12% CTOs, 25% board members, 20% presidents, 34% vice presidents, 23% founders, and 39% directors. (from tables, PercentWomenXCompany, where X is job title)
Generally, the percentage of women in "leadership roles" in companies has trended upwards since 1980. (from companywomentot table) (here, see if number of CEOs in 1980 is different than number in 2015 because that would show if women in major leadership positions has changed over time)
