The Venture Edge

First, I would like to take time to congratulate my blog-mate Kathy Allen for her recent article in Forbes -- awesome job! Second, I had to laugh when I read the male engineer's quote in Kathy's latest post: " Excellent advice, even for those of us among the weaker sex." At least until I thought about it for a minute and realized that this assessment rings true. By many measures, in American business today women are increasingly pulling ahead of men.  

I just had the opportunity to write for Forbes about what you need to think about if you believe it's time to leave your job in Corporate America.  This is an issue many women have faced as they begin to hit the glass ceiling and are frustrated that their job is not giving them everything it should.   In fact, that's why many women leave the corporate world to start their own businesses.  But surprisingly enough, I heard today from an engineer who said he had learned something from the article as well, claiming " Excellent advice, even for those of us among the weaker sex."
