Doesn't really just apply to women though. This applies to anyone, male or female. Being timid is going to make things a lot harder in trying to gain a foothold in climbing to the top of the corporate world.

That article and the comments are hilarious.

"That, and the fact that women are less honest/adept at straightforward verbal communication and prefer to rely on things like mind-reading, body language and intuition to a degree that is completely unwarranted and inappropriate in a workplace or anywhere else where the need for conveying clear signals is paramount."

Reading body language is inappropriate in the workplace! lolololol

For this article to have a conversation that does it justice, it really should be over at Fratching. If anyone feels like reposting it there, we'll have at it.
