She's Too Assertive!

from Dear Society · host Sureen Heer and Alena Lu

"Women can't be successful CEOs." "Girls aren't supposed to build things or code programs. Those are jobs for men." "She needs to watch her attitude; she's too assertive about politics." These are all phrases commonly heard in business, STEM, and politics when describing strong, successful women. Today's episode features a wonderful guest speaker, Ellen Zhang, who is the co-founder of 2AM Post and the president of Women in Business in her high school. We will be sharing our personal experiences as girls in the fields of business, STEM, and politics, as well as empowering other women to step up and become more involved in fields they are passionate about.
