The answer was yes. It had been months and months of total

My CEO spent nearly 10 years building his company. A few weeks ago, he sold it for $30 million. I have been part of our 30-people company for 3 years, and the small size of our offices made it easy for everyone to know each other and interact on a personal level.

Maybe to change that, we need a few more all-female teams across more levels of government and business for people to get used to the idea of women as adept. It’s like what Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said when asked how women would be enough on the Supreme Court: “My answer is when there are nine.”

If a person’s first thought when seeing a group of accomplished women is that their gender got them there (as opposed to the truth that it likely hindered their rise), what they’re really saying is that they cannot imagine so many women are truly that smart or capable. One or two women? Sure. But more than a token amount of anyone other than a white man is suspect.

For centuries, straight white men have been at the world’s helm because they were straight white men. Still, despite eons of patriarchy and the systemic disenfranchisement of marginalized communities, we are supposed to believe that the glut of white men in power is based on competence alone. How many times have we heard that an all-white male panel, board of directors, or leadership team was chosen solely on ability? They were race- and gender-blind in their process, they swear! It was all about who was best for the job!

I’ve talked personally to my CEO many times and have been in countless meetings with him. I’ve talked to him on the phone. My desk was never more than 10 meters away from his office, and his door was almost always open. He had this big window next to the door, so that you could aways see who was sitting with him at meetings.

Let’s say that’s actually the case and that the throngs of straight white men in positions of power are really there solely because of their smarts — why, then, would it be so hard to believe the same could be true for a group of women? (Given the sexism women have to overcome, I’m willing to bet that an all-female group would actually be more adept than a group of men who haven’t had to face the same hurdles.)

It was a bright Saturday afternoon right in the middle of last year. I was at home, relaxing, when I got a call from my CEO. I hesitated to take it, but I also knew that following the recent set of events at the company, he had to talk to me. I took the call. 10 minutes into the conversation, he asked me point blank: “Should I fire your manager?”
