Which VPs? *all* VPs? In *all* companies? In most companies? Individually? All taken together? How many female VPs are there? Are they precisely the ones that are more influential?

You have no idea who I am or what I do, and yet you make condescending remarks about my need to learn "a thing or two" about corporate America. Perhaps I already know a thing or two, and perhaps my experience with executive boards at some of the largest companies in ths US are different from yours. We are both entitled to our points of view, but your ability to ignore the facts, which are *so* biased, is rather impressive.

CHICAGO, Dec. 22 (UPI) – For the first time since tracking began 20 years ago, U.S. women outnumber men in higher paying, white collar managerial and professional occupations.

The gap will continue because of a self-perpetuating cycle of workplace gains for women, according to international outplacment firm Chicago-based Challenger, Gray & Christmas.

תודה, ג'ק כבר שלח את ההפנייה הזו, והיא לא מתייחסת לנושא הדיון ביני לבין AMR שהוא נשים בתפקידים בכירים בחברות הגדולות. אם קראת את התוכן, ראית שמדובר בסטטיסטיקות לגבי עשרות מיליוני עובדים בתפקידים מקצועיים שונים, וזה באמת מאוד משמח, אבל לא קשור לדיון הנוכחי.

I must agree with you…

My spelling was so bad that you just did not understand the content, right?

I have explicitly said that the facts I was exposed to were the result of my own personal observation and not a scientific one.

This observation is based on the fact that in the past almost 20 years I have worked for more then 100 companies, many times concurrently, stretched from Brazil in South America, throughout Panama/Guatemala in the central America, going through more then 20 States (from east to west cost) in the United State and more then half of the Canadian provinces (from Yokon and BC in the West/north to PEI in the east- Ontario and Quebec included).
In each of those companies I have managed and managing yet between 500 to 2000 employees reporting to me or my lieutenants in the company I own by the chain of hierarchy command, per project, per company.

Ho yes, I have worked long time on and off in Israel as well responsible for many central initiative that you and alike today are getting it for granted, never realizing who was behind initially.
To remove any stinging questions as well,…. I would like to mention that I have fought as an IDF’s armored Battalion commander in the last three Israeli wars and started my abroad endeavors only after completing 20 years of first line reserve service (many of them in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon).

Why am I telling you all that? Just letting you understand that I know one or two things about corporate America. Nevertheless, if your experience is equal or topping mine, bless you. In any event I respect your experience…please do mine!

I would like to refer you to the conclusion of my postings in another thread here. I hope my “Spelling” will not prevent you of understanding it as it was written and intended:

“Having said all that we have to come finally to some measured proportions…..The vast majority of woman is descent and men lovers; This majority part should not be stained by the vocal, indecent (Inhuman – calling for the elimination of the Men gender) parts from the feminist movement. We have to recognize that even among the feminist activists there are nuances and some of them are positive beings that are carrying positive intentions. Men organization should fight those negative elements within the feminist movement that are calling for the elimination of the men gender and support those that are calling for cooperation.”….

Kapish?

The statistics stating that most corporate America managers are men is highly misleading.

True, the vast majority of corporate America CEOs are men but the second level of senior management; the VP level is occupied by more then 50% VP women (my own observation is 60% and more).

I am basing the observation on intimate familiarization with about 50 out of the fortune 500 companies.

This is the object of my criticism, not whether or not you believe there are decent women or whatever. Surely you noticed that I *quoted* your reservation about this being your personal impression not a scientific fact, so there's no need for you to repeat it and claim that I misunderstood.

This is your impression, excellent, so perhaps you will find the cold, hard, undisputed facts enlightening. The facts are listed above. Do you disagree with them? If so, say why, and preferably give us some data. If not, we can part ways.

This has nothing to do with your background, your experience, or anything of the sort.

Apparently you are trying to eat the cake and yet keep it intact.

If the “Trusted” resource (no evidence to the source of the resource and its accuracy) brought by you to contradict my clam is so sacred, how come you are not answering tens of facts and links brought by Jack and Gil Ronen.

That shows that you are using demagogic tactics to makes yourself appear right, correct and good. You have done that with them and now you are doing that with me.

Sorry, not in my nationhood. Life thought me (and I am warmly recommending that for you as well – and no, I am not trying to portray myself as belong to higher level – just answering your unquestioned question) to trust my own observation and get far away from such so called “Trusted” researches/resources. You must be a young person. Only the youngsters are so fast to bring researches and crunched numbers. They have not been equipped with enough life experience to understand what is behind the numbers.

Two of the five major Canadian banks are so much infested with women workers that male are barely bothered of sending their resume for job application knowing for sure that their chances to be hired are slim. In those banks the typical branch is deploying 20-30 women and one decoration of male worker, just enough for the bank to be in compliance with the Canadian anti discriminatory law (well, the situation is not that bad in the USA). Again, my own observation, as I am highly familiar intimately with most of the Canadian provinces and its financial systems. BTW, we see some encouraging steps for corrections in those banks.

One of my academic titles is in Statistics and I would like to assure you that I am fully capable of turning any research upside down; presenting any result that will contradict the original one with a very simple methods and numbers manipulation (trusting statistical numbers – mind you).

I am not claming that you are the one to manipulate the numbers but I am assuming that you were willfully manipulated by others to believe in false results.

It is your civil right not to trust my own observation and opinion; I have no problem with that. Nevertheless, it is becoming more and more apparent that opinions like mine are getting deeper and deeper into the public opinion mainstream; the pendulum is swinging back faster and faster. People like Jacob and Gil Ronen are contributing much to this process; we need more like them though.

The judicial system is adjusting itself after long hibernated winter and finally, not in the too long future men and woman will find their place equally side by side in our society (Please link yourself to the Prophet Yeshaayaho prophecy….).

So the choice is yours, you can find yourself residing on the dusty shelves of history or becoming a part of a better, just and equal society, it is a matter of a simple choice.

סליחה שאני נדחף, 218945
אבל אחרי תגובה 218927 - אני במקומך באמת הייתי נפרד ממנו לשלום, כפי שהצעת יפה בפיסקה הלפני אחרונה.

זה קצת טפשי, שאדם עם השגיאות שלו באנגלית מנסה להתנשא עליך, בין השאר בשיטת ההפוך-על-הפוך - "and no, I am not trying to portray myself as belong to higher level". ההתנשאות שלו היא בחזקת ז'וז'ו-חנוק-אותו.

לא הייתי מתפלא אם הוא איש קש של אחד מצמד הליצנים.
