“While women in the workplace are nothing new, what really seems to sideline many is the fact that with everything evolving so quickly many dont want to accept that were basically learning throughout our whole careers”
As a woman, I agree. At 52 I LOVE to throw myself into something brand new. Learning something all the time, even if it’s very small. But I’ve always been like that. Never satisfied to sit in a rut....
I’ve never worked well with other women unless they were very, business minded/non-emotional/no BS/tell it like it REALLY is types. It’s rather painful otherwise.
Well put; I’ve worked with and for some very sharp women, but they were older than this demographic (they’ve be at least 75 now). They had no sense of entitlement, and understood that advancement came through added value - and that came through current skill sets. I suspect young women (and men) today probably get the same message now; they may be pampered, but they understand an employer has no use for dead wood.
