Interesting podcast. Here are my tips for female professionals…

A woman’s yardstick is different than a man’s.

I suggest you pay attention to the opposite sex, because we can all learn from each other.

Women define success as living on their own terms and reaping internal rewards, such as being able to spend time with the family, being able to do what they want, and not having to worry about money. Women focus on connection and relationships; that’s their strength in business. By following their example, you can learn to be more nurturing. Hone your business relationships, be responsive, give your staff the power to handle complaints immediately, and you’ll develop lifetime customers.
Men define success more externally: getting the nice house, the nice car, the toys, the gadgets. Men invest in themselves regularly and without apology. Follow their lead and attend the high-priced seminars, hire the consultants, and do what it takes to raise your skill sets and learn new things.
