Navigating the workplace world, women are sent both subtle and not-so-subtle messages that to get ahead, they must act like men, or “play like the boys.”

Is this true?

Not at all, says guest Janice Lierz, helping to guide your audience through a lively chat discussing:

• Why men have meetings in the bathroom, and why listening with a glass to the wall
isn’t wise.

• Women are told, “Don’t decorate your office like your living room!” Why pillows and personal photos ARE smart choices.

• Who’s cornering the women? Women comprise 46 percent of the work population but less than 3 percent of large corporations are led by women.

• Hillary cried and won the next state.
Is it okay to show emotion in the office?

• How women can tap into their natural creativity at work, and why they are much more adept at this than men!
