Women at work

I work in a women infested team.

A recent survey showed that men prefer to work with men - 52% stated outright that this is the case where only 17% of women want to work with just women.

Here's a little secret: women make terrific co-workers, just like guys but different from guys. They enjoy making others look good as well as themselves.

Unlike men, women are more inclined to hold back unless they have something useful to contribute. It would be useful to ask their opinion when you know they have an important perspective.

It is easy to develop rapport and friendships with most male colleagues, so too it is possible with women.The more you know about each other, the more you can understand each other. If we are between meetings, I always try to have lunch or a drink together.

Oh, another thing: never ever feel castrated when a woman rather than a man does better.
