Oy. Here come the ladies wanting theirs...
The big Drama! of the recent reshuffling of an artificial intelligence company has made big news, bumping the War on Gaza off the front pages in some circles.
It's over. The fella maximized his compensation by getting hired by a rival, and having his "demands" met by his original company before he came back...
Here come the glommer girls who want theirs. A lady reporter who has made her name by being... a lady reporter with a quiver full of adjectives and frowny-face insults for the fellas running the show. She forgets, in pushing women candidates for the board, that it's whats between your ears, not your legs, that matters in building a brave new world.
Didn't you retire to raise your family and write your memoirs? Let the players play, and stop thowing cheat shots from the sidelines already. Women who work, and can best compete, should be hired.
IT's what you know, not who you know, that matters most in the 21st century now. You can only ride your contacts to the top, but it's your own work that keeps you there... or not. Brand that?
* She's got a lot of money, but she's no Mitt Romney...
That line didn't go over well the first time either. Americans don't want people like Mitt or Kara to hand place ladies in professional positions or on boards. That's why our country today is where it's at. We're growing more diverse, breaking open those monied circles at the top that act as closed-networks promoting their own picks. The whole world is sending qualified candidates in all fields now: media, technology, science, medicine, law, etc.
Networking matters sure, but not if you can't get the job done in the end, or your talents for branding and self promotion outweight the actual writing and reporting skills you are being paid for. Hth.
