Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article was to show the impact of the principle of equal opportunities for women and men on the perception of the role of women in management. Investigating the impact on the development of a gender equality situation shaped the scope of the subject matter of the qualitative and quantitative analysis carried out from the perspective of equalization of opportunities for women and men in the management environment. Another aim of the article was to ascertain whether there occurs a dynamic equalization of barriers between men and women over time. The analysis of the material collected allowed for some conclusions and their interpretation gave rise to some assumptions about the future development of the phenomenon. As a result, it was concluded that social and legal education of women is a key demand, and that all actions stemming from the principle of equal opportunities for women and men, combined with social sensitivity in the broadest sense, can contribute to minimizing inequality in the future.
