  • Don’t directly confront men in meetings, because men perceive this as threatening. (Women do not.) Meet before (or after) the meeting instead.

  • If you’re having a conversation with a man, cross your legs and sit at an angle to him. Don’t talk to a man face-to-face. Men see that as threatening.

  • Don’t be too aggressive or outspoken.
Unreal.

I swear this could be out of a Sailor J video. The only thing missing is a warning "they'll tell the church".

I missed the “don’t let men see your nose, it threatens them” page. Lol

They may have held an entirely separate seminar on how to contour the exact right amount to make men listen to you without triggering their fight or flight response and the sheer terror men can experience when faced with nostrils, in which case they won't hear you at all - just an alarmed ringing in their ears.

I’m trying to wrap my head around this whole thing. I know in my work place we have a dress code - for both men and women it states ‘casual professional’. This could lead to a lot of interpretations, but basically it keeps men from wearing jerseys and ball caps, and women from wearing...club wear? We pretty much wear what we want. We have heavily tattooed staff, staff that wear suits or dresses, super prim staff, very casual staff - all kinds.

As far as leadership, I mentor young women. I teach skills, not how to be a pancake. I teach how to build confidence in one’s approach. I can help with public speaking and meeting skills, how to be noticed in a meeting, but those “tips” in that presentation are so outdated I can’t believe someone paid money for them.

Over my years in the workforce, business attire for men has changed little: colored dress shirts and ties for self-expression. Women have always had a greater choice when it came to office attire: dress, skirt and blouse, pants, some other combination.

With this choice comes a dilemma for some: How to look professional, while exercising some form of self-expression.

While 99.99% of women dress appropriately for the office, there are always outliers, whose wardrobe choices are in poor taste to put it diplomatically.

Rather than single those people our (the brave and correct thing to do), they decide "punish all for the crimes of one". Why is this done? I suspect for several reasons:
1.) Those empowered to coach do not do it well;
2.) Those empowered to coach have a history of imperfect conduct themselves;
3.) The organization fears a lawsuit, and, addresses the issue in a manner that uses the path of lease resistance.

I'll have you know that is compulsory reading for all female employees at Fox News!

Here is rising Fox News star Abby Hornacek, one of their stable of eye candy blondes able to create priapism among male viewers. They are sending her out on hard news feature segments like My Favorite Jingoistic Sports And Country Music Stars. The not-so-subtle message is that if you think pure thoughts and vote Republican, than maybe you too can win-over a tall, svelte, beautiful blonde as well. But if you go down the wrong path of progressive liberalism, you are destined to live a life of living hell in a dark and dank apartment as an involuntary celibate!

It's disgusting. It's like one of those 1950's guides on how to be a good wife. A friend and I laugh about that because her husband was raised to treat women that way. She's been slowly beating it out of him over the last 20 years.

    • Shallow and avoiding the topic much?
      It surprises me zero that a fat-cat Wall Street corporation handling massive amounts of the world's money would have a ridiculously out of touch view on how us commoners should behave.

      It surprises me greatly that Jeff Hornacek genes resulted in offspring seemingly designed by Renaissance artists.
