平特五不中

平特五不中 Women in Leadership (MWIL), Deautels Women in Business (DWIB), TEDxMontreal Women, the National Women in Business Conference, the Intercollegiate Business Convention. Evidently, as the non-exhaustive list above demonstrates, there are many occasions for women at 平特五不中 to thrive and shine in the area of leadership, where they are chronically and critically underrepresented.

This just serves to show that, here at 平特五不中, go-getters surround us, and females are no exception.

In an attempt to uncover the processes that ostensibly inhibit the full participation of women in the modern workforce, Patricia Hewlin, one of the panelists and a professor in the faculty's Organizational Behaviour department, bodly stated that "young women pull themselves back from opportunities" before their careers have even started. She then went on to clarify that women are socially conditioned to restrict themselves from pursuing certain career oppotunities, as tehy are constantly "thinking about the impact [of their decisions] on their potential family."
...聽This thought was later echoed by another professor, Brian Rubineau, who pointed out studies which have demonstrated that 鈥渨omen disproportionately self-select鈥� themselves as being ill-suited for work in certain fields solely on the basis of gendered preconceptions. This 鈥渟elf-selection鈥�, according to Rubineau, is principally the result of both implicit and explicit messages in media, as well as in the social circles of many female young professionals.
