Based on global research, you'll learn more about the invisible gender playbook in business that hinders most women and organizations from reaching their full success. Men operate on a hierarchy structure vs. the flat structure that women use. Each gender is a culture unto itself, raised with basic rules of conduct "instinctively" known to all adult members of that gender. Consequently, what seems natural to one gender culture can seem mysterious and baffling to the other. Learn how to improve workplace communication between men and women instead of placing the blame on either gender.Why women typically are the least supportive of other women in a position of power?And so much more!

You cannot manage what you do not see, and you cannot manage what you do not understand. Tammy Hughes
When you create awareness opportunities like we do its critical that it be balanced and that it's about helping men understand the female culture and women understand the male culture without trying to promote or change a culture at the expense of another one. Tammy Hughes
It has to start at the top, the only way to shift an organization the only way to move a needle is for leaders to embrace gender differences and unconscious biases that then models it for the entire organization.
Companies are great at hiring diversity mixes but mixes don't organically work well together you have to help them mix. Tammy Hughes
