Have Men Been Unfair in the Work Place? You Bet. Let’s Look At a Possible solution

Any woman who works in corporate America understands that there are two set of rules, (unspoken rules) when it comes to women and men in corporate America. It is no secret, intelligent women have known for decades what the deal is.

Company policy clearly states one thing, and men’s, non-verbal policy, may be entirely different, depending on the company.

It is said that in the US Army, the wording is “stand down” when they don’t want a solider to take action on a particular situation. For the CIA, the same wording is more like “dummy down.”

Women in America are very much in alignment with the mode of operation of the top spy agency. Women in corporate America are masters at dummying down, when necessary, and powering back up when necessary.

Woman, also understand what happens when her true intelligence is fully realized. Depending on which man realizes the truth, she can become, the target. Being made a target, for the first time, usually is not that serious. Just a little reminder, that it’s a man’s world, and if you want to play, you have to play by their rules. The end result is, women learn that men usually stick together and because of this one factor, they usually prevail. (Plus they can dummy down faster than any woman alive.

Most times, other women in the office don’t have a clue as to the battle you are involved in. Women who never challenge the “good old boys society” never really fully understand the dynamics behind the non verbal society. Because of reform in the workplace, the "good old boys club" is well disguised, unlike it's results.

Unfortunately, this post is not about helping women who are having trouble with the corporate male ego. This post is about empowering yourself to think outside of the box,

Obviously you are intelligent, smart and self-motivated.

Think about working for yourself, or creating your own job. Review your talents. Do your research, and then, research your research. Meditate or pray on the best decision for you, and your child or children if you are a single mom. Ask yourself if winning the corporate battle is in your best interest? What will it really cost you, in the end?


Only you can answer these questions.
