November 18, 2009Women in male-dominated industries

Filed under: This Week in the World,Uncategorized by merylrunion |

One of my clients just wrote me that before she read PowerPhrases!, the only communication tool she had in her toolbox was a hammer.

She’s a woman in a male-dominated industry. I just presented a webinar for her professional association. The questions centered around how to communicate as a woman in an industry that hasn’t yet figured out that women are now prominent in the workforce.

Women actually can have an advantage in those settings. Why? Because women tend to use more tools than just a hammer.

Are you interested in participating in a tele-forum about women in male-dominated industries? Let me know if you are. And tell me if you prefer a day time or evening event.
