Women at Work

If you've taken time off to raise a family or are just entering the market after working out of the home for many years, you're probably concerned. Who will want you? Will they take you seriously? Where do you start? Or if you're at a point where you've decided it's time to scale back your career for a while, you may worry you'll be left behind. You could be at odds with the men in your workplace or feel discriminated against--which has got you walking around with a chip on your shoulder without knowing it. You may worry you don't have any experience, struggle with choosing between your various roles or think it's hard to find companies that support women. Or as many women tell me, you struggle with how to be yourself-even share your true feelings-without being misunderstood or taken advantage of. To see what women in these situations go through and get insight into how to master these dilemmas that are unique to women, see the articles I've compiled on the left side of this page.
