act is probably in there somewhere.
Do women consider choosing between motherhood or a career?
[Editor's note: Why is this question
asked to women, but not to men?]
7. Why is it that when a woman
advocates for herself, speaks up,
or assumes a leadership role,
sometimes she is viewed as
intimidating, bossy, or hostile?
Those same traits exhibited by a
man would be deemed favorable.
8. Take a look at where you, your
family, or your friends work at this
moment in time. How are women
represented in the ownership or
executive leadership roles as a
percentage? What are the key points
that helped them achieve their success? I think charting this process
might be an exciting place to begin.
9. How does "fear of failure" play a
role? What about the notion of
"what other people think?" For
women, what psychological triggers
hamper them from getting started?
10. If there was one thing that could be
changed that would dramatically
affect this challenge, what should
happen? What are the next steps?

"One of the things I like best about
owning a business is being able to foster leadership and managerial skills in
teens and adults. I intentionally hire high
school students and work around their
schedules and study needs. I foster the
qualities they bring to my shop and enhance them with real work experience. I
also counsel them when needed to build
an excellent employee with strong leadership skills and a solid work ethic for
their future employers."
Like other ideas, for real change to
happen, difficult and sincere conversations have to take place. And like most
big, scary topics these days, there are
more questions than answers.

are more women leaders and business
