Nearly 50% of the US workforce are women, working mainly in workplaces designed by and for men. Disadvantages in the work place cut across secular and Christian organizations, disadvantaging women from enjoying meaningful work and motherhood, advancement in careers and ultimately living out their God given gifts and talents. Many of these disadvantages can be tracked down to deeply held beliefs about women, work and leadership, beliefs that Jesus sought to dissolve. This workshop will explore the mutual prosperity of men and women in organizations when women succeed at work and gain a seat around the table.
