SEOUL -- More South Korean conglomerates are promoting women to top executive positions, a sign of change this year in a country where male leadership has been deeply rooted in the corporate culture.
The LG group has tapped Lee Jung-ae to head LG Household & Healthcare, making her its first-ever female CEO. South Korean companies customarily make executive appointments in December to start off the next accounting year with the new management team in place.
