[quote=Anonymous]Also a woman in law (public policy, gov affairs) and I relate. It’s hard. I can’t swim with these people—happy hours, volunteer committees, and golf tournaments make me want to cry. I’m not antisocial, I just can’t do “shallow” that well. I’m good at the hard analytical work, and the strategic thinking— but not the relationships. I see people with half the skill progressing in their careers because they are good at leveraging their relationships into new opportunities. It doesn’t come naturally to me and I feel like a fraud when I try.[/quote]
