I believe we need affordable child care. I believe we need flexibility. I believe we need institutional reform and public policy reform.

Women have made tons of progress. But we still have a small percentage of the top jobs in any industry, in any nation in the world. I think that's partly because from a very young age, we encourage our boys to lead and we call our girls bossy.

Next time you're about to call your daughter bossy, take a deep breath and say, 'My daughter has executive leadership skills.'

No one gets to the top, if they sit on the sidelines, or if they don't believe in themselves.

Today, despite all of the gains we have made, neither men nor women have real choice. Until women have supportive employers and colleagues as well as partners who share family responsibilities, they don't have real choice. And until men are fully respected for contributing inside the home, they don't have real choice either.

The promise of equality is not the same as true equality.

Everyone needs to get more comfortable with female leaders-including female leaders themselves.
