Governments, public institution and organizations over the years, have, committed themselves to policies and programs to advance women. To support women in strongly man dominated sport industry there a lot of programs and courses created, still according the statistics it hasn’t hit the target yet. New perception is needed, which would from early career days would develop and build confidence involving women in sport management activities alongside man. This needs a lot of effort and education, the change has to be done as early as possible in order to create a healthy workplace culture where women can do their best especially in sport industry.
