Hillary and Sarah Help Change the Face of Corporate America
Our good friend and colleague, Lynn Shapiro Snyder, recently wrote an intriguing op-ed article for Pink magazine online entitled "Hillary, Sarah and Wall Street." In her article, she notes that two high-profile politicians -- Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin -- have changed the image of leadership in a way that can benefit women in corporate America. Lynn raises a good point by noting that if a man is ready to select a female candidate as the president or vice president of the U.S., he also should be ready to select a female candidate to help run his company, as either a board member or CEO.
Lynn authored the article in her capacity as the founder and president of the Women Business Leaders of the U.S. Health Care Industry Foundation. This is a great foundation which helps senior executive women in the health care industry improve their businesses and grow professionally.
We highly recommend that you read Lynn's article, which is available by clicking here.
Please give us your thoughts on whether the women of the 2008 elections will make a positive difference in corporate America. Will it be reflected in increased participation in leadership positions?
