Wednesday's Words of Wisdom

There are a lot of backwards authors and advisors of women out there who think women need to learn how to play golf, go for drinks at the club, or talk hockey in order to get into the boys club. Nothing can be further from the truth. The people who get invited into the game are the people who bring something to the table. If you aren't authentic, you can't be trusted. People who are trying to be authentic will look to partner with people who also value integrity and authenticity. Women don't have to become men in order to be successful. In fact, they should appreciate that they hold a lot of the skills that men attempt to learn. Authenticity is the foundation of the new paradigm of business." —Christopher V. Flett, Author of What Men Don't Tell Women About Business. ISBN: 978-0-470-14508-1
