Are women not supporting women? Unfortunately this is happening a lot more than we would like to see. And this leaves a lot of us dumbfound. Here is some light for you.
It is true that women often to appear to treat other women not with the highest respect and collaborative support. This is observed through a wide range of behaviours, from taking credit to undermining, competing and criticising.
In this episode I dissect what I believe to be the multiple layers that drive those behaviours:
- From our human design, DNA and lifestyle
- The impact of widespread, invisible trauma on emotional reactivity
- The differences in life stages amongst women
I then give you 5 steps to maximise the support you can get from women around you at work, within what you can control.
This episode is so critical for any woman at work. Because we need an awareness and change at an individual level, in order to impact this collective phenomenon. Please share this page or episode with your female friends or colleagues, this is so important for us all.
