How to support women in the workplace: Women are represented at every level of business, although they make up more than half of college students today. But despite this knowledge, we have yet to take the important step. It is to say that no progress has gone there, but it is incredibly slow.

 

Look at Payments: A recent report from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics found that in 2017, women who full-time employees were given only 82% of their male counterparts' pay. The trench is worse if you are a woman of color. The Thus If changes in pay difference continue at the same rate, it will take up to 205 9 for women to earn only as men.

 

Consider the boardroom: Less than 5% of Fortune 500 companies have CEOs. While women enter the workforce on the same foot as men, the further corporate ladder you go, the less women you find.

 

The possibility of these inequalities is not news for many leaders, especially women, as gender differences are widely written in the workplace. But the question is: What can we do? I believe that there is a good place to educate yourself and start others.

 

The reality is that when it comes to leadership conditions, many Americans believe that women are holding a higher standard than men. Some cite "family responsibilities" as an obstacle in the way of women leadership. Negative language is often used to describe women in the performance review, and when most people are asked for a portrait of a leader, they imagine a man. In my opinion, it is prevalent in such situations that gender is bound to slow down gender equality.

 

But it is important to note, it is always a man who does not seem like this. Unconscious bias can affect all of us including women. How can we, together, this effect?

• Become a champion for the success of the other women. If we are standing in view that the success of a woman is a victory for all women, we can become supporters of each other. If you wonder how he achieved success, ask him. I believe we can develop our skills by looking at others who are in the aspirations of reaching us. In other ways, we can make another champion, publicly speaking in a women's co-accepting meetings and calling out or interrupting when someone says showing a woman underneath. Social media is a great medium to highlight our successes, whether it is shared by someone you know or an article that highlights a woman's success. Be enthusiastic for women's victory.

 

• Check your prejudices. Many people are unaware of their sexual bias. The first step you can do to wake up these prejudices is to see the areas. For example, are you classifying leadership symptoms as aggressive as male or classified powerful, vocal women? If so, this is your chance to check and interfere with bias. If you insist on this behavior in others, say something in a non-threatening way. One example can be: "I was also looking at that aggressive as, but then I realized that if the same behavior was coming from a man, I would have thought that he was a great leader. You can see that, too?

 

• Speak, hear and get contributions. As a female leader, it is very likely that at some point in your career, you have been interrupted by a male colleague. Although performance bias in this way is not something you can necessarily control, I believe there are a few ways you can get to listen to others. When you are in a meeting, you are deliberately listening. If you have contributed an idea and have not accepted it, but a non-real person repeats it and accepts it, it is a turn for him or something and something that explains this idea was basically just like, "You are my Thank you for strengthening the idea. "In other words, make sure you are given the proper loan for your talent.

 

With some simple, yet constant, change, I believe we can have an impact on gender inequality. It is time that all women are deliberately supporting each other in our successes and identifying and altering gender prejudices of our own and others. Our talent is needed. Women, when together for a common reason the band can change the world. We were not given the right to vote, earning my property or a college education. We fought for those rights, and ultimately, we won. We can also improve the workplace.
