That's not the point of the glass cliff. The point is that women are more likely to be hired as CEOs when a company is in trouble than when a company is in good shape. It is specifically about the circumstances when a woman is more or less likely to be hired as a CEO.

So the lesson here is don't accept a job that is destined for fail. I still fail to understand why it is a female-centric thing. Tons of guys have taken CEO jobs and gotten rick-rolled.
