Women in Places of Power?
Women, do you see yourself leading an organization, being on a Board of Directors, possibly being President someday? In our society, women have an important role to play in leadership positions and contributions to make. Everyone benefits greatly on all levels if women are peppered throughout various points and hubs within our organizations, companies and parts of our society. Over at InPower Women, Dana Theus, a blogger I’ve been following, covers what women are really good at and why we are a desired part of any organization, government entity, etc. Dana covers why women work well with others and how it can improve business.
Ladies, being that we were all trained in the ACTiVATE class to become CEOs, who will you place in your organization and how diverse will this pool will be? One thing we had to do early in the class was to identify every resource from family to friends and even distant acquaintances…people that can help us on our path to success, be it a small or large piece. I think that this will be something we will have to visit time and again throughout various stages of growth of our companies. Do we have the right people on the bus, who are they, and why.
Miss CEO meets Miss Housewife
Miss CEO meet Miss Housewife; as we all know being a busy CEO also comes with other roles and tasks that we must adopt at times. This weekend has been a whirlwind of activities, with going to my college reunion, chores, and some CEO activities! Always try to find some time to decompress and rest. I usually run around a lot on the week doing multiple activities and chores and so my weekends are catching up on domestic activities and running errands. I also stay home to rest and relax. I look forward to these times because, I am not doing the per usual, sitting in an office, working the corporate life. Its sometimes a pain but always refreshing to do chores, especially in springtime because then I can catch up on my tan!
Look at that gnarly hill! My fiancée is out today tearing up some dirt paths on this bike and here I am sunning our rugs and laundry. What are some ways that you decompress? How do you find your way out of the corporate race and back to your real self? Please comment and share!
