Currently, there is a massive gap between the
number of women and men who are actively successful within the workforce.
According to The Rockefeller Foundation, “Across geographies and income levels,
disparities between men and women persist in the form of pay gaps, uneven
opportunities for advancement, and unbalanced representation in important
decision-making.” Women offer unique perspectives regarding community building,
company advancement, and mentorship within the workplace that men often fall
short to achieve due to their communication styles. Despite outperforming their
male counterparts academically, women continue to be under-represented in the
workforce.
Being a woman in a field dominated by men can be intimidating, Sheryl Sandberg outlines her biggest challenges as a female business woman within her book Lean In. In combination with extensive research, I have combined her experiences as a CEO, my own as a student and employee, in order to guide women and employers toward success and inclusion.
