Too many women still allow closed doors to deter them. They expect men to tear down the doors so they don’t have to do anything to advance themselves.
All through my career I faced closed doors. On the other side of the doors were the All-Boys Clubs. I could have let each closed door stop me but as I looked at the door, I also saw knob.
So I turned the knob, opened the door and walked in.
It was easy.
Of course men were surprised to see me but I acted like I had just as much right to be there as any man. I knew my credentials, experience and achievements gave me more right to be there than many of the men.
And this may shock many women – the vast majority of men accepted me and made me part of their group.
So don’t let closed doors deter you.
Remember closed doors have knobs. So turn the knob and walk in.
