5 lessons to learn from women's soccer:
The double bind was in the news again. The personality driven comments and criticism about the United States women’s soccer team during the World Cup highlighted, yet again, the double standards competent women live with every day.
But here’s one thing that stood out. The team did not let the noise get in their way. They tore their way to victory in almost every game they played despite the media uproar. They ignored, laughed at or responded to the criticism as they saw fit, without it affecting their performance. Unfortunately, this is not how it commonly plays out for many of the competent and conscientious women who face the double bind at work. Many of the women who approach me for coaching are those who are struggling to manage the subtle, and not so subtle criticisms of male dominated workplaces. They’re angry when they’re spoken over or when others get the credit for their ideas and hard work.
We live in a world that is increasingly becoming aware of the ethical, financial, social and environmental need to have parity at the top. It’s time to stop twisting ourselves like a pretzel to fit into cultures that are way past their time. Instead of playing by masculine rules of the game , we need to embrace our full feminine authenticity. That’s how we’ll rise to the top so we change the rules that are is desperate need of change.
