From my childhood, I was always emphasized the importance of a career. It was not the necessity of money that drove me to work. It was necessity of having one's identification, make use of one's knowledge and contribute something towards ur fellow beings..But when I stepped into corporate sector, one thing I noticed was Management was always filled with men.There were hardly few women on top. I keep thinking why women dont make it although they are exceptional managers at home and toppers in schools and colleges.
If we look at the current scenarios , atleast in India. there are large number of women at entry level and very very small number on top in all domains not just IT.
what could be the reasons?
The reason atleast what I could think of are:
Maternity
Childcare
Husband's Wallet :)
There could be many other reasons which I would not deny.
But I would like to discuss on the above reasons.
There are many offices which provide sufficient facilities, flexi working hours , sabbatical leave etc to retain the fairer sex.
I have seen lot of ladies ( increasing number in software field) who just give the excuses.They lack commitment to work and dont have the vision of having a full fledged career for themselves.They work just to make money. Once they are married, anyways they will be supported by their husbands. They dont seem to have their priorities set right and end up being messy. Once they find it stressful, they decide to quit.
I dont think it requires great intelligence to work in a software company or any other field unless you are doing some research:). All that it needs is few committed hours at work to execute the job in hand. Most ladies give excuses even for that.. Then how else they can raise to the top. It affects ladies who really show extra energy and go that extra mile doing personal sacrifices to perform in careers. Ladies in general will be considered as " Not an expert at their work", "dont respect deadlines".
When will the scenario change?
When will men start thinking about ladies for what they are than how they are?
Is family and children, only ladies world?Why they are themselves in a cocoon? why dont they start contributing on their part ?
All such questions keep pondering me with no answers.....
Pity all those ladies with no identity and admire those ON TOP.!!!!!
