women usually leave the workforce to raise children, so there is naturally going to be a gap in most companies with less women in higher-level positions. private businesses should not face financial penalty for this, that’s unfair and biases in itself.
Diana Peper was not worthy to be promoted. She could barely handle being a GM let alone a AD. Just ask her empoyees in Pinellas Park, Tyrone or Kenneth City FL
