In a lot of male-dominated industries, work tends to get sorted into two buckets.

This week! ...on Corporate Systemic Biases:

Colleague darts into my office and asks my male colleague at the other desk if he golfs. Then darts out.

Heard in the hallway:
"Just hoping to catch everyone for the outing, I didn't want to miss anyone"

Hmm, you missed someone.

Attended a women's webinar where I shared biases in industry and how poorly women are sometimes treated.

A woman suggested I should reevaluate my brand and the merit of my work should speak for itself. So basically she said the problem is me, and I suck at my job. Thx hon. #WomenInConstruction

We spend tens of billions on defense of America.

But if we spend nothing on education, the arts, science, museums, and libraries, what are we even defending?

What is the American way of life without those things?

Hooooweeee! Bold article, women ARE pretty fed up with male-dominated industry monoculture and the biases.

20+ years ago I thought we could stop talking about this by now.

Just had a call from my mom, wondering if I’m a ‘DEI hire’ and at risk of getting fired. 🤯

A constant stream of fast ‘news’ shapes her views, to put it lightly.

It's also hard to take that she thinks I might be unqualified to do my job. That is the message coming through from the US govt rn.

Being a woman in a male-dominated industry, I celebrate a male ally this week who stepped in to let me finish my thought when I was interrupted.

It takes a collective effort to elevate women’s voices - and frankly, it’s a lot more fun when we work together!

To break the stereotype that compassion limits women leaders to roles of wife or mother, we must redefine leadership to include empathy and emotional intelligence as strengths, not weaknesses.

Compassion can drive stronger connections and better results in any industry.
