Abstract in different language:	The main objective of this paper is to introduce and compare situation of women in top management positions in the Vise-grad countries. The issue of women entering managerial position is becoming more interesting and currently belongs to one of the most discussed topics. The number of women working on top management positions is increasing but on the other hand, this progress is really slow. Many people believe that gender is no longer an issue that matters at workplace, but they are wrong. Otherwise, there would not be any organizations dealing with gender equality, women rights or activities connected to feminism. There exist attempts in many countries (including the European Union and the United Nations) that deal with introduction of minimum amount of women involved in top management. This minimum is usually set to achieve level of 40% of non-executives in publicly listed companies. One of such strategies is also the Europe 2020 which aim is to achieve sustainable, inclusive and smart economic growth. However, according to Eurostat Newsrelease, issued on the International day of women, female managers create one third of all managers in 2011. In all member states, male managers prevailed the amount of females´ one, although in some of them, this rate is very low. This paper provides overview of current situation of women managers in Vise-grad countries.
