Description
Only 2% of the VC funding goes to women entrepreneurs? Being asked whether you plan to get married and to have a baby during an interview? How hard has it...
show moreAt the time around the International Women's Day, "Two Ends of the Guacamole" would like to present to you a special episode focusing on women's status in the workplace, with perspectives from women in both the U.S. and China.
8 women from different age groups and industries were interviewed, including:
- Dian Grueneich, Commissioner Emeritus at California Public Utilities Commission, and Precourt Energy Scholar at the Precourt Institute for Energy, Stanford University;
- Chunguang Wang, Founder and CEO of EQuota Energy;
- Anonymous: Manager from US renewable energy corporations; US social entrepreneur; Marketing manager from Chinese drone companies; Dean of China's state-owned Design Institute, etc.
The discussions and interviews are centered around these three questions:
- How does the identity of women play a role in one's life?
- How does gender affect one's career choice and career advancement?
- How are women treated in the hiring/fundraising/other work-related process?
Some clips of the Chinese interviews are summarized by us in English in this episode. We have also released an Chinese version of this episode as well - please subscribe and find it in our list of programs.
We hope you join us in hearing these women's voices and let us know what you think!
