- W335238229 abstract "This paper discusses the faulty perception that women cannot reach the top in corporate America or if they do they have something along the way. In the world of the is not glass, it is reinforced concrete and cannot be shattered as many would lead you to believe. A better way is to realize that the structure is solid and un-breakable to begin with. With this in mind, one can adopt a strategy that uses the existing power structure, agreements, alignments, relationships and personalities that are already present to provide what is missing...achieving your career goals. The author has many years of experience in the corporate environment and has identified various patterns and trends that can be leveraged toward your advantage. Approach your goal from a new perspective and you may find yourself guided in for a landing....at the top of course. Introduction The Catalyst Guide: Advancing in Business states that, Women now make up nearly half of the American workforce. (16) Yet, for a variety of reasons, the talent, creativity, and leadership potential women represent have remained largely untapped by the corporate world - a world eager to exploit the full potential of its intellectual capital. Intellectual capital equates to VALUE. one can create the agreement on their values, then you can easily navigate your way through the corporate structure. The corporate world covets value and agreement. (1), (2) The glass ceiling is a term commonly employed to discuss the situation where women confront hurdles for advancement. (10) Think about it for a moment. The ceiling is not glass. It is but a thought. That thought creates an excuse for failure that is stronger than concrete. It is an excuse not to perform. The idea of a glass ceiling is a devious means of manipulation designed to convince women, mostly, that they need something broken in order for them to achieve the top. Well, since they want something 'broken' then let's give it to them. Let's break the thought of the glass ceiling and insert, in its place, a new thought, that by providing tangible value to the organization you can achieve the top slot. The traditional approach to the glass ceiling is based on discrimination. We can refer to this as the, They wont let me because syndrome. You can fill in the blank with any of your favorite discriminatory practices and you have just provided an excuse to yourself for why you're not at the top. Now instead of concentrating your energy on getting to the top you must spend it on breaking down the barrier that you created in your path. This is a great retreat for many because it gives them something to complain about as they go about the 'busy work' of trying to remove the barrier instead of focusing on creating value for the organization. The conventional approach to the glass ceiling is that it exists and needs to be broken. Wrong. There is no glass ceiling; it is much more complex than that. Madden, Russell (2000) Shattering the Glass Ceiling wrote a piece that says in part, If glass ceilings existed, they would allow people to see through to the world above them. Because glass is clear, those existing under such a ceiling might not, at first, even notice that a barrier was in place, which separated them from higher levels. Yet if they tried to pass through, they would quickly learn that the ceiling prevented any such rise. This analogy has been offered by some people to describe the alleged condition, which is supposed to keep women and minorities from achieving any but token positions at the highest echelons of corporate America. Most individuals concerned with this problem cite it as evidence of discrimination; a situation which therefore should be corrected by an application of affirmative action laws. Yet even if what such advocates of equality claimed about glass ceilings were true, they would not be justified in using immoral means to achieve a purportedly positive end. …" @default.
