[quote=Anonymous]As a white federal contractor I think it is great that so many women now in their 50s and 60s have been able to rise to management positions in the fed gov (I mostly work in accounting and IT). My mom is a similar age and she and my MIL always tell me that they felt they only had a few choices for careers - teacher, nurse, secretary, book keeper. I love that my fed clients are ethnically diverse, from a variety of backgrounds, and some have handicaps that are accommodated. It makes my company hire more diverse people so that we "look like the client". Sometimes it's tough to relate to people different than you, but in my experience diverse teams are more innovative because people with different experiences approach problems differently. [/quote]
