I know from my own experience that the path to change is best traveled when we travel together.

Every woman I know, particularly the senior ones, has been called too aggressive at work. We know in gender blind studies that men are more aggressive in their offices than women. We know that. Yet we're busy telling all the women that they're too aggressive. That's the issue.

You need to feel that you're making a difference.

I would be better at my job if I were technical.

Over the last 10 years, women have stalled out at the top.

I'm excited that more people, especially men, are understanding that equality is good for them. I don't want men to want equality for women because they're being nice to their colleagues and daughters. I want men to want it because it's better for their companies and their lives.

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