The original article is at WSJ behind a paywall but read it if you can. One woman complained that "meritocracy" would be unfair to women, I had to look that up, it means pay based on performance ...Whoa... too real world there.
Those that can't, resort to affirmative action.
Meritocracy is certainly unfair to the meritless. This woman does not think much of women. What a dingbat.
From the article: As another executive said, “He showed no recognition that the culture shapes the performance metrics, and the culture is that of white men.”
BS! The business requirements and plans shape the performance metrics. People who do not contribute to the organization’s performance are not entitled to just ride the payroll.
And, this executive needs to rethink his skills and style.
As long as people like this continue to nurture the politics of victimization and the entitlement mindset, this great experiment will remain in grave peril.
Most women seem to be process oriented. In contrast, men tend to be results oriented. I would describe maybe 5% of the women I meet as results oriented. And then there is the tendency to mother [grown] people who are failing, whiners, and/or crybabies. In a nutshell, that explains a great deal.
Well if the Women don’t want to “Work Hard” they can always follow Elizabeth Warren aka Spreading Bull did, claim victim hood.
if yer gonna run with the BIG dogs...You spelling his name wrong would probably make HIM angry.
It is ironic they quoted a woman EVP at State Street. I worked there once and I witnessed that women were more vile and backstabbing to each other than anything I’ve ever seen in my entire life. I wouldn’t want my daughter working at State Street.
What I take away from that twosome it that you get ahead on your back.
