In the 21st century, too many women struggle to manage a double shift at work and at home, while grappling with unrealistic pressure to be, do and have it all, aka a modern-day “Wonder Woman.” Yet while women work more hours than ever – a median increase of 80% between 1979 and 2012 – too few companies provide the kind of support that women need to be successful. Even President Obama, in his 2015 State of the Union Address, called ...

Game-Changing Women Radio executive producer and SAP CLO Jenny Dearborn notes, “Trying to navigate organizations from a position of authority can bring out the best and worst in a woman.
