Interesting clip today to view from Lane Bryant CEO who reacts to a discussion given at Microsoft.com where women were told to wait for their raises. The Lane Bryant CEO says absolutely not. According to her, this is not a time nor age where women ought to wait for things to be handed to them. As a woman in today’s business world she has to see herself from the perspective of an equal, even when the rest of the world refuses to.
Thus the notion of women being encouraged to wait upon their raises seems to be a trend that is of a bygone era. What we are now seeing is an age not just of assertive women, but capable leaders who should not be looked upon due to gender.
