We Hold Ourselves Back In Ways Both

There Is No Straight Path From Your Seat Today To Where You Are Going. Don't Try To Draw That Line. You Will Not Just Get It Wrong, You'll Miss Big Opportunities. And I Mean Big-like The Internet. Careers Are Not Ladders, Those Days Are Long Gone, But Jungle Gyms. Don't Just Move Up And Down, Don't Just Look Up, Look Backwards, Sideways Around Corners. Your Career And Your Life Will Have Starts And Stops And Zigs And Zags. Don't Stress Out About The White Space-the Path You Can't Draw- Because There In Lies Both The Surprises And The Opportunities.

Women Need To Shift Form Thinking "i'm Not Ready To Do That" To Thinking "i Want To Do That- And I'll Learn By Doing It.

When We Get Feedback On Women, We Ask, "is That Real Or Is That The Gender Bias At Play?" Everyone Could Start Doing That Today And I Think We'd See Really Big Results.

A Truly Equal World Would Be One Where Women Ran Half Our Countries And Companies And Men Ran Half Our Homes.

We Call Our Little Girls Bossy. Go To A Playground; Little Girls Get Called Bossy All The Time - A Word That's Almost Never Used For Boys - And That Leads Directly To The Problems Women Face In The Workforce.
