Mayo (director, Harvard Business School Leadership Initiative), Nohria (business administration, Harvard Business School), and Singleton (a doctoral student at Boston College's Carroll School of Management) examine the demographic evolution of business leadership in the United States, paying particular attention to the effects of birthplaces, nationality, religious affiliation, educational background, socioeconomic status, gender, and race on the career paths of business executives.
