The sad truth is that most workplaces were built by & for men. They are evolving, but if we want to make radical progress towards gender equality, we need to ensure that workplaces are not systematically disadvantaging women—intentionally or inadvertently. #WomenInBusiness

I am so grateful for the many mentors that have helped me along the way 💜 I wouldn't be where I am today without the extra time my managers spent on me at the @WSJ and @EsteeLauder! #WomenInBusiness
No one leader is an island, that’s why we’re excited to hear your stories with question six! #WomenInBusiness

Work-life balance is all about ruthless prioritization. Time is our most valuable commodity—and every minute of every day we have to make sure we are spending it best. #WomenInBusiness

I believe that career paths are—and should be—fluid. I honestly can’t say that I’m one of those people that plotted out a strategic path to get to where I am today at @Fairygodboss. I believe in more of a trial-and-error approach. #WomenInBusiness
Inspiration can come from unexpected places, why not share yours for question four? #WomenInBusiness

#WomenInBusiness need to think about being their own publicist. Figure out your elevator pitch and then practice giving it - fearlessly 🦸♀️ In fact, we can start right now if you want! What are you good at? Reply and let me know 🗨️

One of the most important lessons I've learned in my career, and something I learned early on at @Fairygodboss, is how to manage rejection. You have to understand that professional rejection or setbacks are not personal. #WomenInBusiness

For reasons I can’t explain, I feel like I’m often underestimated 👎 In past work situations, I’ve had to work twice as hard to demonstrate my abilities vs. people taking my abilities at face value. I think that's pretty common for all #WomenInBusiness. Can you relate?

What happened in Pittsburgh is both tragic and senseless. We cannot look away. We must respect differences and remember that what we have in common is so much more important.

It’s happening on all fronts, all around us, every day, the move backwards, the reversal of progress made over generations by mass social movements.

We grieve for the Americans murdered in Pittsburgh. All of us have to fight the rise of anti-Semitism and hateful rhetoric against those who look, love, or pray differently. And we have to stop making it so easy for those who want to harm the innocent to get their hands on a gun.
