I saw an article on linkedin entitled "Getting More Women into Engineering Requires Cultural Challenges". Written by a female PhD of course, and shared by a college professor (who obviously just wants more students and wants to appear to be 'diverse'. Some of the quotes featured:
This crap is insane. Now, I don't let it bother me like I used to, I just work around it nowadays. But we all need to be aware that this BS is out there. It generally doesn't matter, because when it comes to anything in life worth having, you have to earn it. But it's still good to know what the enemy is plotting. Some serious hostility out there. Fight back. Keep a journal. Don't let these idiots get away with preferential treatment.
Why? They never answer that question. They just say it and expect others to believe it.Over my four-decade career in engineering, I’ve become accustomed to being the only women in the room—or, until recently, at least an obvious minority. That’s a scenario that needs to change in order for the engineering community to reach its potential.
Negative? From why I've seen men in engineering (usually cucks) flock to women and women always get the 'management' type roles for obvious reasons.SWE also notes that more than 32% of women “switch out of STEM degree programs in college.” Though there can be many reasons behind that decision, a 2016 study conducted by professors at MIT, the University of California at Irvine, the University of Michigan, and McGill University found one powerful reason: “The negative group dynamics women tend to experience during team-based work projects makes the profession less appealing.” Specifically, the researchers found that in team-based educational activities and internships, “gender dynamics seem to generate more opportunities for men to work on the most challenging problems, while women tend to be assigned routine tasks or simple managerial duties.”
Wut??? Can you really shift blame any further? I mean it couldn't possibly be that men are just better at STEM 'thinking' can it? That's the real truth that can't be said publicly.In other words, the male students get the fun and challenging work while the female students get the boring tasks. (This may offer a strong argument for female-only institutions, as one executive with a STEM background recently suggested.)
Exactly, because they suck at it. The good looking ones hang around because the cucks like to suck up to them.If they make it into the workforce, only about a third of women who earn a bachelor’s degree in engineering remain in the field 20 years later, according to SWE. A study from 2012 found that those who left cited “organizational climate” as the reason. Catalyst cites similar factors: “Isolation, hostile male-dominated work environments, ineffective executive feedback, and a lack of effective sponsors are factors pushing women to leave [science, engineering, and technology] jobs.”
Cultural? What does this even mean? People should hire women......why? How does culture equal productivity? It seems to me that just 'talking' about culture, rather than implementing it, is what truly matters because cucks and women eat it up. It appeals to the feelz.Everyone can do something to encourage women to enter and remain in the engineering field because the efforts required are largely cultural rather than financial.
Ha, so hold the boys back. Got it.If you are a teacher or professor, design group assignments to ensure that both male and female students are required to assume (perhaps on consecutive projects) both “hands on” and administrative or managerial tasks in order to prepare them for the workplace.
Again, where has this been proven true? Diversity because reasons? This isn't the stock market.If you are a recruiter or hiring manager, consciously look for diverse candidates, including women. You are the front line of culture change. Instead of looking for “cultural fit,” look for “cultural fission”—the dynamism that can result when you put bright people with different backgrounds and faces together. Adaptability and creative response to a fast-changing world are critical business sustainability skills. Internalizing that ability by diversifying your talent pool is a great way to develop that capacity.
Yeah, just put them on your boards because they are women. Don't let them earn it. Do it because reasons.A stronger reason for having women on your boards is to improve talent management, decision-making, and profitability. Those were the findings reported in a March 2018 paper by MSCI, a financial planning firm. In short, diversity delivers productivity and profitability dividends. What’s not to like about that?
