Women often believe that the job is about the thing. But good Performance contributes only to a small extent Success at. All too often it's about image and notoriety. That means: those who present themselves well have more success!
Again and again I meet in Coaching young women leaders who tell me: “I am also someone who has believed for years that I can make a name for myself through the cause. How could I be so wrong? " They come into coaching so that I can “coach them”.
I often have to make them painfully clear: The job is not just about the job. Of course, it's also about power and self-expression. I consider that morally unacceptable.
But if you love your job and really want to do something good, you have to either set up your own business, start your own business - or strategically manage schizophrenia according to the motto:
I play the embarrassing game of power and self-expression - but only to do good in the end.
However, if you decide to do this, you have to be extremely careful not to hurt yourself verlieren, like that happens to many board members, whom I also meet in my coaching practice.
But what does not help at all: backing down in frustration instead of consciously closing decide. Because again and again I receive emails and requests to speak from wives or partners of board members and managing directors.
And then hear and read such sentences: “I have them all hands fully to do my husband as a board of an international Company down to earth!", "I used to be a department head myself and at some point I realized that my dear colleagues are only concerned with their own advancement and no longer with factual content."
It's better to become active yourself!
No question: one System, in which those who can better market themselves make headway, is questionable. I don't dispute that. Not even board members dispute that. But that's not the point.
It's about: what do you want? "I thought I could distinguish myself about the matter." Anyone who says that wants two things: Advancing the cause and profiling themselves. Think about it: What do I want more?
I know many women who have decided with full conviction for the cause, running the whole business at clerk level for 20 years - and that's why none recognition and Career gotten from the Old Boys, but who are very happy and successful with it.
The reason for this is simply that these women have deliberately opted for the cause and the career.
On the other hand, there are also a lot of women who have made a conscious decision: "If I don't get on with my expertise, I'll just hit the system with my own weapons and get myself a high position."
And women then use this elevated position to do a lot of good. Like the young entrepreneur who inherited the construction company from her father and was soon awarded an entrepreneurial prize because she is now ecologically and socially responsible sustained builds. She says, for example: “Why shouldn't two Mothers an Workplace split?"
Ergo: It is possible to do good things and not be interested in careers. It is also possible to use the ailing system itself to do even more good from a higher position.
On the other hand, what does not matter at all: to scold the system, to condemn its injustices and senseless power struggles
Until there are enough women in the system to change it completely, each of us should decide on one of two attitudes, both of which are success and satisfaction enable: I'm doing good in the matter - I don't care about my position. Or: I do good things - and get a senior position for it.
Two of equal value ways Fortunately. Which one is yours?
