Women often complain that their bosses raise only itsfriends.And women do not get above a certain level.Seems legit.
Studies show that women in the US have been getting 77 cents, where a man receives a dollar - a little better than is the case only in the universities.And how many women among the managers of the 500 largest companies?In 2009, there were only 15, including Carol Bartz of Yahoo !, Indra Nooyi of PepsiCo and Ursula Burns of Xerox.But they are - exceptions in the male world of top managers.
I'll be honest.During his career, I raised more men than women.I even pay more than men.Maybe I'm a misogynist?Or men do better?Naturally, no.
In fact, women are guilty.
They are not asking for an increase in salary or promotions as often as men do.My organization has interviewed hundreds of women from America, Europe and China.Most of them think that if they work hard and are useful to the company, sooner or later will get a boost.They also fear that they will be fired if they are too pushy, especially in a crisis.
Enhancement rarely given just because you work well.We need to assert itself.This is especially important on low positions: there is keener competition and more difficult to be seen.
Both men and women must not only earn promotion, but also to inform the authorities that his / her time to improve.Leaders do not just increase the security of people, and those who insist on pushing.Good leaders know what works best in an environment of professional staff, and help those who want to grow with the company and not to run away to a competitor.
Of course, there are those corporations where women are treated badly.Stay away from them.Corporate culture is difficult to change, the fish rots from the head.It may seem surprising, but according to our research, the majority of men are willing to work under the supervision of women.Many even admit that they would prefer a female chief, because women tend to respect the right to privacy.
What to do if the main obstacle to an increase is in you?
Here are two tips - and women, and anyone starting a career.
Firstly, you can not get that, what you do not ask.Therefore, ask for promotion and salary increases even in a crisis.Most bosses will not fire you just because you want to move forward.Have you ever heard of a person dismissed for a request for a raise?(Of course, we're not talking about the political struggle for the top job.) Very often, bosses do not even think about who is to promote and who is not.They are too loaded.We must throw them the idea that you should raise.
How?Do not go to the boss with the threats that fired if you do not get a raise.This cheap trick is obsolete.Go to the issue in perspective.Arrange a meeting to discuss what you can do in the next 3-6 months to earn a promotion.Prepare a few themes that would demonstrate your achievements.Try to show how you contribute to the income of the company and to exercise leadership.When you explain to the head of their achievements (he may be surprised), ask what you do now.Try to match his expectations.If after a few months you will not get a raise, maybe it's time to think of another job.
Secondly, women should not be used to promote their sexuality.In the business world, appearance is important.But you want to be appreciated for the quality of business, rather than a short skirt, it is unlikely to cause perceive you as a suitable boss.Flirtation say, but that you be taken seriously, you need to focus on the matter.Try to look professional and attractive but not sexually.The same applies to men.Man in bright, flashy clothes will not be taken seriously - except that in show business.
On increasing difficult to ask, especially if you are not sure whether you deserve it.But any woman who wants to reach the heights in the business world, should actively look for opportunities to improve and take responsibility.Suggest chief plan, execute it and make sure we all remember about your business abilities.And soon, among the first persons of the companies will be much more than fifteen women.
