Muriel Fox

  • Total commitment to family and total commitment to career is possible, but fatiguing.

    • Muriel Fox,
    • in Barbara Jordan Moore, New Woman ()
  • Women lead in ways different from men's. Men, I think, have been programmed to give orders. Women have been programmed to motivate people, to educate them, to bring out the best in them. Ours is a less authoritarian leadership. I think women tend to play hardball less often. This is the trend of office politics anyway: the days of warring factions are over. We're talking now in terms of cooperation, and I think that is the game women play best.
