She has proven human resources skills because she was hired out of house and has remained at the eBay helm since she started there. Whitman understands market forces and knows how to use them to her advantage and to the advantage of her company. She knows what her shareholders need and how to satisfy them and the numbers prove it. Moreover, Whitman has accomplished all this for eBay while also serving on the Board of Directors for Proctor and Gamble and of Dreamworks. As a female student of business and economics with a strong interest in information technology, I emulate Meg Whitman. While I may not be named one of Time magazine's 100 most influential people I do hope to influence all the people who I work with as a business owner and manager. Meg Whitman's name should be more well-known. I believe that more women need role models like he. I also look up to Whitman because of her boundless energy. Since my family and I entered the United States, we have all worked harder than we thought we were capable of. Knowing...
As a student I need role models like Whitman, who accomplish their goals through hard work and not just luck. She used her business education to her advantage and to the advantage of her colleagues. Undoubtedly Whitman works well with others, a leader and as part of a team. For instance, when she is CEO at eBay she is the leader but as a member of the Proctor and Gamble Board of Directors she is a team player. All successful businesspeople need to learn how to serve judiciously in positions of power and how to participate fully and humbly as part of a team. In both cases, the businessperson serves an organization whose goals are shared by all members. Whitman and other businesswomen like her will be my role models as I work toward my undergraduate degree.
Women Are More Faithful Than Men The libraries and bookstores are overloaded with published books about love and relationships, and television programs deal with those topics on a daily basis. One of the most frequently addressed topics in these books and programs is infidelity. And while digging into the subject, as this paper does, it is apparent that when it comes to infidelity and cheating, men do it more than women. This
She argues that the evasiveness and incongruites in the narrative exist since Spenser is facing issues that are not easily answered. From the start, Britomart represents an authority figure, a power not found in any other knight in the Faerie Queene. Spenser says that Britomart literally cannot be beaten, since she carries a powerful magic spear, or phallic symbol (depending on the interpretation) that refers back to the theme of
Women in Higher Education Describe ways in which female college students in the era from 1920 to 1945 influence the present generation of female college students. It would not be unreasonable to refer to women in the 1920 -- 1930 window of time in American history as pathfinders. Professor Mary McComb explains that in 1930 women workers and students "were perceived as larger threats" than in previous era; indeed, the "new women"
The women whose husbands did serve the pro-Union cause (often Republicans) did not necessarily take over the farm work and other "male tasks" on the farm. Instead, the work was done with the "same kind of neighborhood and extended-kin support" that was in use prior to the Civil War (Rodgers, 112). Also, many soldiers wrote letters home "…virtually micromanaging their farms from the front," Rodgers continues (113). Wives received a
The problems that these women have encountered have ranged from domestic issues to career issues to stereotypes. To solve these problems, the United Status must view them in the light of immigrant women. References Anderson, M.J. (1993, April).
