… to women in the corporate world. Stop complaining about harassment and focus on the bottom line.
I had a highly profitable job responsibility in my younger years and exceeded margin goals every time.
Of course there was some harassment but I had the power because I made the company a lot of money and frankly, nobody wanted to mess with the rainmaker.
As abhorrent as harassment is, women can fix the problem.

You go, Liz 🙂

True dat, Liz! Where did all this “I’m a victim.” come from? Especially re: verbal comments that used to be considered compliments (appearance, etc.) Good grief!

I’m happy to get this comment because I’m feeling somewhat blue today.
My Senior Vice-President in my first job died this day five yrs ago and I can only think of how he developed and taught me every damned thing I ever learned about business. Two great stories in respect to my SVP JS:
1. I made a huge buy that did not work out and his response? “Don’t let this preclude you from taking risks. At least your markdowns will be more meaningful.” Who says this ?
2. Breakfast meeting in Hong Kong to review my buys, except he was more upset about an harassment issue I had dealt with the day before. I was young, naive and appalled so I had ignored it completely because I was worried about my image. JS of course had heard about this and commented, “He’s a dead man. Nobody messes with my people.”
I miss him. A lot.

“Like” in support, Liz! ❤ So sorry to see this, but glad you had him as your first boss! We need some more like him. (and a bit more "I Am Woman") I think. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rptW7zOPX2E

Nice blast from the past! I liked it when we just dealt with the bull**** and didn’t make it such an issue.

When did the ‘liberated’ get so thin-skinned and weak-kneed – in general?

White, suburban women have to do more to right this ship. Once we decided that certain ‘intersections’ feelz trump other (intersectional) peoples feelz, it became an act of self-sacrifice to not make one’s tribe a perpetual victim of “the (evil, white) man.”

That’s a whole other post! I agree because as mothers, they of all people should be horrified by Biden’s welcome to hundreds of thousands of illegals, a third of whom are Covid infected. Anyone worried about their families here?
