The phenomenon of the glass roof is analyzed from the perceptions and experiences of the academics regarding the access to the managerial positions in their institutions, materialized in the existence of internal or external barriers that affect the labor career of the women, preventing them from accessing positions of Upper management. The study is developed through a case study of two chilean universities, considering the use of qualitative research methodology gathering information through semi-structured interviews with academics Who hold university positions. The results identify the work-family reconciliation and the macho culture as the main barriers that make up the glass ceiling within the universities analyzed.
