They could elevate women past manager roles. We have great product managers at our company, almost all women. But all the heads of the actual product department are men.

Same here…just realizing all of our C levels are men and they make most of our big product decisions…then the women go and build. ouch

One thing I can think of is to create an environment that is supportive and encouraging of their contributions. I personally have seen great success when I've worked with female colleagues in product roles, and I highly value their perspectives and insights.

A women majority in a department or women in leadership positions. I also really like to be interviewed by women and hear about reimbursed activites for development

If they highlighted the women in leadership roles within the company, there would be a lot more female candidates sending in their applications.

Personally for me, I think providing mentorship and professional development opportunities can help women advance in their careers and feel supported in their roles. This can also help to build a stronger pipeline of female talent for product roles in the future.

Have an acquaintance who is a single mom; she purchased a used car 3 mos ago. Six wks later her 17yo wrecked it, air bags deployed, and estimates have ranged between $10-$18k in needed repairs while $21k is still owed. Acquaintance was switching insurance policies and flubbed the coverage dates and there were a few days where the vehicle was uninsured. No GAP insurance. I'm not seeing many options for her besides to continue pmts, fixing just enough to drive or voluntary repo. Thoughts?

Wonder if anyone can offer advice on which cert to pursue next? I obtained my CompTIA Security+ last year and wondering if I should go for the CySA+ or Pentest+ next. I also have my AWS CCP and will be sitting for the Solutions Architect soon as well. Currently not doing security stuff at work but would love to keep my skills going. I was hoping one of these next certs will help me finally break into a security role and love the idea of pentesting but not sure if the CySA+ is more beneficial.
