When women are in positions of power it's a hard place to be, especially when that position involves bossing men around.

If nothing else, I want women to understand that they are powerful. If you look back at history, in almost every big moment, in every leap forward, you find ordinary women at the core. We have more ability to make changes in the world than we can imagine if we have the courage to try.

Women don't realize how powerful they are.

That's all I could ever hope for, to have a positive effect on women. 'Cos women are powerful, powerful beings. But they're also the most doubtful beings. They'll never know - we'll never know - how powerful we are.

We have a very long way to go to really penetrate the power structure. Until that happens, you will not see stability among the workforce, among women - in the workforce among women.

If more women are in leadership roles, we'll stop assuming they shouldn't be.

I think as women, the smarter and more powerful we are, the more it can be threatening and alienating to other people, more than with men. That's something we need to support each other with.

Women are such strong, powerful leaders, and a lot of the time, we play it silent.

I have found that women have so much unleashed power that they don't really utilize because they don't have confidence in themselves about who they are and what they can do.

I hate to say there are female and male ways of dealing with power, because I think each of us has a male and a female part. But based on my own experience, women will tend to be inclusive, to reach out more, to care a little more.
