So on point! Thanks so much. I was also so scared of being a leader till I became one. Ladies, you can do it..its not rocket science. Just remove the fear factor and you are good to go...don't forget to develop yourselves, that's the only way you can learn the ropes. Good luck👍

1. Focus on your values before you do anything that scares you 2. Be brave, have and show mental and moral strength to face danger, fear, and difficulty

Thinking about my experience, what I found out is that it is really hard to get men to trust you in the workplace, but once day do, they are very supportive. However, women will see other women as a threat and start making their lives hard. For the most part I have experienced that women are the enemies of other women.

but that is also a result of our gender-biased society. we are taught to see other women as adversaries, since we are little girls. it takes a huge effort on each one of us to overcome this barrier. you should try it too =)

Excellent talk. I am a woman who never feared leading and, from a very early age, knew that the thing I wanted to do in life is lead. The issue I've found is that the kind of leadership the teams I lead need is that which helps them organize, communicate, and collaborate, (which I'd argue is the "ideal female leader"--that of "mother" to her team--makes sure the kids keep their rooms clean and get along properly) and the kind of leadership they get is militant, dictative, and distant (which is a "father" to his team role, but don't get me started on our society's daddy issued). Often the white male lead I work with will not have an understanding of what is wrong and what needs to be done (because the team lacks organization) but thinks it's his job to TELL everyone what to do, sometimes even just doing it for them because he lacks the ability to communicate what needs to be done. When I've brought my leadership skills to the team, it becomes organized, team members understand who to go to when they need what, and everyone knows what they're supposed to be doing, but I don't get recognition from the male lead. It's like he himself lacks support and guidance from his other male leads and superiors. The issue is that men are rising into these leadership roles BECAUSE of their appearance (white male = looks like a leader = must be a leader) but they don't actually know how to lead the team (due to lack of training or competition instead of collaboration with their peers) so they become insecure when their team gets the support they need from me. Mind you, it's not ALL the team needs, it could use the direction and foresight these male leads should be providing via their job description, but I end up being all they have when their "traditional leader" isn't fulfilling his responsibilities. In summary, what I'm suggesting is that the female leadership problem could be resolved by fixing our male leadership problem. We just have a leadership problem, people.

So wanting to step outside the box and fly. Enjoying these talks

Focus on your values, really great advice.

What a great talk, she is so right. How can it be that women make up 50% the population and do not have proportional representation in leadership positions? Incredible! I really hope individuals become aware and willing to encourage women to lead. Go women! You CAN do it!

I’m tired of putting the responsibility on women - telling them to lean in. I have leaned in, and I was told to shut up. Not that directly, but it was the message. I’m nearly 15 years into my career, and this has been the repeat message from the company I worked at for nearly 10 years. Happy to report I’ve recently left, but again, women cannot solve the problem of inequality by themselves.

*To me most guys can theoretical do dating, though they mess up practically. And it has more to do with society in general than the actual situation. Everyone seems to be under societies influence of madness and that to make everybody so stressed out. So womens behaviour is not at all the reasons why dating is hard. Still women seem to have the only power to transform society on a large enough scale and thus to take dating and the whole ways we live our lives to another level. Therefore I like to assure you women: you have all the time and space to make decide over your own life, to open up and do what you like! The universe supports you and society needs you! Especially in public leadership and as initiators lies your strength! It may not be easy to overcome the trauma of centuries of exploitation and marginalisation. Though the rewards are thousandfold for all of us! You can do it! You have the power in your decision. Connect. Do small steps. Every contribution to this task is such a big gift of your unconditional love! I thank you deeply from my heart for existing and all good you ever did. For your patience and companionship! For your individuality and for your deliberate intentions and your wisdom! YOU ARE STRONG!*

The answer to your surgeon riddle is that the surgeon was the sons dad. Let that sink in- we have stereotypes about homesexual parents too.

I dont think a woman she be in charge nor do I think a man I say the right Person should be incharge

The only issue I have with women in leadership, particularly politics, is that most (if not all) have been APPOINTED to their position instead of voted in. Look at VP Kamala Harris, NY Gov, Supreme Court Justice, etc. There will be more respect for their achievement if they are voted in or not given all out preferential treatment.

The most dangerous thing for any team to have is a fearful or insecure leader. You probably shouldn't be a leader if you are feeling that way...period.

Male leaders - Vision, Aim, Plan, Apply Female leaders - Vision, Aim, Plan... waiting to be approved by the society, waiting to be accepted, waiting to be discovered, waiting, waiting, waiting...

This is exactly what someone who isn't a leader would say. Your my leader when I say your my leader, and its not because I'm feeling generous. It's because it's obvious.

You got leadership wrong. A leader hears arguments to inform an opinion, correlates it with facts, and sets a direction. Then direct the employees.

We are all equally but we are very different men and women accept that fact and cooperate

I disagree with the presumption that equal numbers of men and women in leadership roles should be even the goal. If men and women are equal in every way, then why does it matter who tends to be in what leadership roles? Let the cards fall where they may.
