      "Most women in leadership try to lead as men, so that they feel they have more power and can achieve more. Competition between peers is savage. Most of the time you will be frustrated by the fact that no matter how great you work and your annual evaluations are, you won't move in the direction you want or you think you deserve. You are a piece of chess. Basically they say much, don't do as much as they say."

      "This company is moving in the righjt direction and has the right policies in place (UK). It is also possible to progress rapidly, providing your line management is supportive, and you are able to 'break out' from the line. First-level line management is still heavily dominated by men, and I have received comments like 'you don't need to worry - you will do ok because you are a woman' and 'we want to set you up for success - another woman had difficulty being a line manager in this region so this probably isn't the right place for you to become a line manager'' - this is a symptom of the industry in general. There is still work to do - but the company are aware of the issues they have and are putting a lot of effort into addressing them."
