There is still a perception that the way women are isn't necessarily what you need for the powerhouse start-ups.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I really think we need more women to lean into their careers and to be really dedicated to staying in the work force.
It seems to me that women have made an awful lot of progress, but they probably remain underrepresented at the highest levels of most organizations, for a variety of reasons. And it's probably going to take a long time to change that.
Progress is being made, but a lot of women are realizing it is not what they envisioned.
There are a whole bunch of structural and systemic factors we need to address in order to move away from the model in which women really are still dependent on men.
When men hold the greater majority of all professional positions of power, it is impossible for a woman to advance her career without the support of men.
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 are trying to have it all but are trying to regain control over their time. That's why many women are busting out of the traditional workforce and starting their own businesses.
Women have made tons of progress. But we still have a small percentage of the top jobs in any industry, in any nation in the world. I think that's partly because from a very young age, we encourage our boys to lead and we call our girls bossy.
If more women are in leadership roles, we'll stop assuming they shouldn't be.
There are certainly a lot of things that still need to change when it comes to women in the workforce.
