Women in management 女性管理者 I DON T know any successful women who haven t had a powerful sponsor in theirorganisation to give them their first big break, says Avivah Wittenberg-Cox, the boss of20-first, a consultancy that helps companies put more women into senior jobs. 在一个组织里，对于女性而言，没有过硬的后台帮助她们完成人生的首次突破，还能够风生水起的，我实在是没咋地见过，阿维娃维滕贝格-考克斯，性别顾问公司20-First总裁，如是说。 That sentiment is echoed by many people who work in this field. 顾问公司20-First帮助很多的公司，让更多的女性做高层领导。她的这一观点得到众多同行的呼应。 But why do women need so much help? 但是为啥女性需要那么多的帮助呢? Many women who climb the corporate ladder have sponsors, too. 许多女性要想晋升，必须有后台，这一道理同样适用于公司。 Indeed, they find it easier than women to persuade a senior colleague to sponsor them.They are also less likely to build up useful networks of contacts. 确实，女性要想劝高层领导帮助自己，不是件太难的事。 But women need help more because they are generally more reluctant to promotethemselves. |
