Hi ladies! I am new to this bowl, so I’m not sure if this is the best way to ask this, but would any women here be open to networking as I work to continue building upon my leadership role? I’ve been working with the same company for 8 years, and I’m at an inflection point where I have some goals to meet in order to take the next step. I have seen great things happen when women support women, so I thought perhaps asking this group to chat may lead to some new connections! Please let me know.

I am new here, too. Been on here a few weeks. I cannot remember how I got here but got a link and looked into it. I have been in HR over 22 years and on the executive side off/on since 2008. Suffice it to say: I am a little tired. Covid spent me. So, yeah…I am here to chat and help others navigate leadership because when you get to Exec ranks, it’s all guys and they don’t really listen. They think they are above that. Women have empathy and a lot of men get into roles by hanging out with the bros club or just knowing the right people. They have ZERO people skills and it’s toxic to the productivity of workers and that is why we are seeing workers quit in droves (even though we are in a recession and inflation is at an all time high).

Same! I’m in for sure.

Count me as well!

I can relate. I was called aggressive at a workplace for speaking plainly about about a project. I was not hostile. No name calling. No swearing which all of the men did.
I asked to be heard. We need to help each other. If someone steals an idea in a meeting we need to give it back to the woman in the room. We have to start standing up for each other

Yes!!!

Absolutely!

Hi All, just sharing what on mind to vent it out from my system. Maybe with this I could gain some insights and inspiration.

I was alone and confused. I have never really got the chance to prove myself which makes me all the more depressed. I'm not sure what to do with my future, indecisive and low on confidence.
