Four women, who've successfully balanced work and family, reveal why they steadfastly refuse to take a guilt trip
Four qualified and talented women, who have walked the tightrope between professional and personal commitments with panache, share a conversation on what it means to be a working woman and a working mom.
Why did you choose to be a working mother?
Carol Evans (president, Working Mother Media): I grew up watching my mother work at home and at office. She had taken a break for 15 years from work, and after this break she was not confident about working again. I encouraged her and gave suggestions on things like what she could wear to work, which did boost her confidence. My mother is my inspiration.
Jackie Glenn (chief diversity officer and senior director of human resources, EMC): My mom raised 10 kids on her own! Hence, raising two girls and juggling a career did not seem like a big deal to me.
