Hello again cupcakes, I hope you are all fantastic. This evening I am preparing for an interview I have this week……it’s not just any interview; it’s THE interview….it’s the first interview I will attend in hijab.
Yes ladies, THAT interview. I started by drafting out newsletters, planning the questions I would ask….then it dawned on me…what on earth am I going to wear?!!! Franticly rummaging through my wardrobe, I try every blazer I own. FAIL.
Despite their contribution to firm performance, women remain under represented in top management. . . Paradoxical situation?
Women in Britain represent 51% of the population and stand for nearly the same proportion of workforce. They are better educated than ever and according to the Equality and Human Rights Commission (2011), they usually outperform boys at school and university. As a consequence, a great number of women are entering the labour market and accessing all industries, mainly education and health. However, even though they occupy middle management positions, they are very few to manage to get top management positions.

Before I published The Innovator’s Dilemma, I got a call from Andrew Grove, then the chairman of Intel. He had read one of my early papers about disruptive technology, and he asked if I could talk to his direct reports and explain my research and what it implied for Intel. Excited, I flew to Silicon Valley and showed up at the appointed time, only to have Grove say, “Look, stuff has happened. We have only 10 minutes for you. Tell us what your model of disruption means for Intel.” I said that I couldn’t—that I needed a full 30 minutes to explain the model, because only with it as context would any comments about Intel make sense. Ten minutes into my explanation, Grove interrupted: “Look, I’ve got your model. Just tell us what it means for Intel.”
