A Shout Out to our Female Bosses

A Shout Out to our Female Bosses

“Work until you no longer need to introduce yourself” ~ theconcreterunway.com

Pouty. Patronizing. Controlling. Typical words to describe a female boss and they’re 100% correct right? WRONG! Why do we commonly assign these traits to our female bosses? It’s not fair and it should stop. Besides, wouldn’t you agree these are traits of bad bosses...period...regardless of gender? Additionally, there is no guarantee that women are more adaptable or accommodating than their male counterparts, these traits are learned, not something that is automatic given the gender. 

Full disclosure, this may have been more of a mini rant vs. a minicast, and possibly just a preview of a future show where we can do a bit more of a deep dive into this intriguing subject. 

I welcome the opportunity to hear your experiences with female bosses or if you are a female boss, I invite you to Have A Seat with me and share your story.

Creating Have A Seat...Conversations with Women in the Workplace Podcast was a way for me to engage in weekly conversations with women about their career journey and share them in a fun and supportive way. I truly believe we all have a unique story to tell; we add value in what we do and are rock stars in our own right and I'm excited to bring you these stories every week.
