Equity - is it another twenty-five years away?

One of the biggest thrills of my career was in 1993, when a hero of mine, Professor Leonie Still, quoted me in her book, Where To From Here? The Managerial Woman In Transition. She used a comment from my newsletter about Half Way To Equal, the Government’s report on women’s representation in the workplace, where I said:

To me, the report is a story of women’s journey. It seems like a trek, and having reached the top of a steep incline you pause to catch your breath and adjust your backpack. You look back to see how far you’ve come, then forward to find you’re still on the foothill; the mountain is still ahead!

It’s a quarter of a century since I started working in the area of career development for women. I do hope it’s not another quarter of a century until we have equity for all!
