There was a time when a woman’s place was to keep a man happy and be quiet about it. Mother’s taught their daughters to be seen and not heard. They warned about men’s negative opinion of women who voiced opinions or made themselves conspicuous. There was also a time when we were sheltered, docile creatures who let men rule the world. That was yesterday.
Today’s Women Leaders
Today, some of the most articulate spokespeople for our society are women with ideas, purpose and persuasive ability. Before John Kerry, three of the previous four U.S. Secretaries of State were women. We are in politics, the professions, in science and the arts. The media is teeming with bright, interesting women who have something to say. The women who have risen to the top ranks in corporate America didn’t achieve their positions by sitting back and letting others take the lead. In 2013, women leaders have found our voices. Now it’s time for all of us to learn how to use those voices effectively.
Communication Skills & Connection for Women
Today’s guest is popular media personality and spokesperson, Jennifer Wilcov. Jennifer is the host of the weekly syndicated show, “Your Book Is Your Hook” and a best-selling author. She’s also the co-founder of the up-coming event for women held in New York and streaming online, “Get Your Voice On.” In everything she does, Jennifer is concerned for and speaks directly to women. She’s the embodiment of her inspiring personal message, “You have the right to remain fabulous – regardless of any situation, circumstance or condition!”
In this Women’s Leaders podcast, executive business coach Sabrina Braham and Jennifer Wilcov will discuss:
- The difference between “speaking up” and “getting your voice on”
- The danger of letting “what-if?” thinking influence your reactions to office situations
- The effective way to women can respond to the intimidating “what is it?” question from a superior with whom you’re meeting
- What you need to have ready when you articulate the problem to a superior
- The two words that keep many women from getting their views heard
- Why “if you see something, say something” is a better rule than “silence is golden”
- What should be your most significant reason for remaining with your company
- The significance of the “Get Your Voice On” conference and how it can dramatically impact how women leaders act and react in the workplace.
Women Leaders are often at a disadvantage
when it comes to advancing their careers.
