[quote=Anonymous]Beware of “non-promotable tasks”. Women get often picked to do the social and administrative things like planning parties or taking notes. It’s important to say no gracefully, or point out that men aren’t being asked or that more men should join the team. I had to do this recently, where the entire team that was picked to help the Admin with 100 person offsite meeting was seven women of varying levels. I actually said, maybe there should be a more balanced team? They added some men to the team. I am in a position of power to do that in my company, but just be cautious of volunteering to do non- strategic work when you can.[/quote]
