Wtf is "identify as a woman"? You're either one or you're not. Theres no inbetween apart from figments of your imagination.
I am not super satisfied with my career growth but happy though...answer is obvious as I have to prioritise in-laws P0 ,kids P1, husband P2 and then job P3 (lowest in priority). If I was given a choice to rewind I will re prioritise myself, my job, my kids, my husband,my in laws n parents.
I am still ok with my career growth from Infosys to Microsoft but could have been an entrepreneur if I used my mind more than heart. Overall happy though.
Genuine questions: If finances are not a constraint, can't the work you do for in laws, kids be delegated to nurse/house help? And how does your husband slow down your career progress?
Over the years I also mastered the art of delegation and have some help. Still the number of items to track and monitor them is also a mental load which men don't have to deal with. Kids lean on their mother for several things in my case kids feel I am more friendly than their father. it's not the husband is slowing but I only have limited capacity and have to prioritize time accordingly. This question itself proves me you are on the other side of game.
In my organization, there are a lot of female leaders. Occasionally get to hear how much less supportive their husbands are as well. Mad respect for them.
My manager is a women. My skip is a man My portfolio leader is a women The above portfolio leader reports to the CIO - a man The CIO reports to another CXO - women
I know it's a bit unrelated, and am sorry. I'm really happy about the above things.
- My immediate team has 1:1 male: female ratio, the extended team also has 1:1 at 18 team member strength
Less supportive husbands? I'm probably going to get married one day, Don't want to fall in this category.Can you let me know specifics?A few examples would be enough.
