Fundraisers treat men completely differently than women. As a matter of fact, many of them have the default on their direct mail set up to read "Mister," and it really rankles a lot of women.

Emerging investors want to invest differently. They want to have their dollars - their investment dollars - do double duty.

I love what's going on these days with these powerful women who are really working to make a difference.

I was lucky. My children didn't have health issues, didn't have big school problems, etc. And as I watched some of my peers go through this, you can see how quickly a family can get derailed when they are not lucky.

Greater diversity drives better business results.

If you're not making some notable mistakes along the way, you're certainly not taking enough business and career chances.

Women have different characteristics and needs than men do.
