Women Like To See Each
Other Fail, And Other Huge Myths

Although women make up 51 per cent of our population, they are
only 16.8 per cent
of Congress and just 15.7 per cent
of seats on Fortune 500 boards.
The most pervasive and damaging of these are that women voluntarily
opt out of the work force, women don’t help advance other women, and women lack
ambition.
This is not a women’s problem, it’s a fundamental flaw in our society.
It decreases our productivity, dampens our country’s potential, and weakens
families.
Women are not ambitious.
This is a pervasive myth that hurts women’s abilities to own their
goals and work toward them. Women’s visions for the world, their communities,
their organisations and their families are powerful and uplifting. And, we have
the ability to achieve them. Many women recognise their ambitions and pursue
them, despite a pervasive narrative that suppresses women’s agency.
