[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would honestly try just leaning out a little bit. Ive seen people do this and have no one notice. Get back to people a little more slowly, say you have a conflict for late afternoon meetings. I'd try that first.[/quote] +1 lots of men are setting boundaries without talking about. Women ask permission and get dinged for it. My advice to women who are working their way up and those at the top is “decide what time of day is more important to you and block it.” And then do everything in your power not to take meetings during those time slots. I still do this and I’m in the C suite. Years ago, my block was 4-6 to walk down the street and walk my elementary school kid home and deal with early dinner. Now, it is more like 4:30-7. I stop and check in with her on homework, make sure she eats and shuttle her around to activities. I rarely have to interrupt that slot. [/quote]
