This is partly because we have only pieces of the past...which give us glimpses of what has been but never the whole reality." Thomas Cahill, author: Sailing the Wine Dark Sea This quote about the fragmentary nature of history reminded me of the photo I took of the goddess Artemis in the museum on the Greek Island of Delos (her birthplace).

The US Department of Labor reports that 70% of women with children under 18 years old participate in the labor market in some way, signaling a change from the days where father went off to work and mother stayed home and raised the children. 3 min read | [Samantha Furbush Taraskiewicz](https://www.leadingnow.biz/blog/author/samantha-furbush-taraskiewicz) [Read ON!](https://www.leadingnow.biz/blog/working-parents) [Gender Dynamics](https://www.leadingnow.biz/blog/topic/gender-dynamics) [Managers Mindsets](https://www.leadingnow.biz/blog/topic/managers-mindsets) [Millennials](https://www.leadingnow.biz/blog/topic/millennials) [Motherhood Penalty](https://www.leadingnow.biz/blog/topic/motherhood-penalty) ## [On the Minds of Millennials: Leading Women's Survey on Gender and Careers](https://www.leadingnow.biz/blog/on-the-minds-of-millennials) *From Leading Women's "On the Minds of Millennials: Leading Women's Survey on Gender and Careers" In a 2016 Linkedin post titled, Dear Men: Wake Up and Smell the Inequality, Adam Grant cited several studies as he wrote, "In corporate America, 88% of men think women have at least as many opportunities to advance as men. This is the finding of a major new study—almost 30,000 employees across 118 companies—by LeanIn.org and McKinsey & Company. Just 12% of men felt that women had fewer opportunities to advance in their organizations. Yet when you look at the actual data, women’s odds of advancement are 15% lower than men’s. It’s not because women are less capable: the evidence is strong that although men tend to be more confident leaders, on average women are more competent leaders." 3 min read | [Susan Colantuono](https://www.leadingnow.biz/blog/author/susan-colantuono) [Read ON!](https://www.leadingnow.biz/blog/on-the-minds-of-millennials) [Talent Development](https://www.leadingnow.biz/blog/topic/talent-development) [Career](https://www.leadingnow.biz/blog/topic/career) [Millennials](https://www.leadingnow.biz/blog/topic/millennials) ## [What is Your Company Planning to do for Millennials?](https://www.leadingnow.biz/blog/what-is-your-company-planning-to-do-for-millennials) The 2016 Deloitte Millennial Study is out - and Leading Women's research is in and neither is great news for companies without a leadership development program for their Millennial women: Deloitte research says: “This year’s survey shows that women are equally likely as men to rate 'opportunities for career progression and leadership roles' as a major factor for staying at or leaving a job.” “Millennials want to work for organizations that have a purpose beyond profit, and they want those organizations to provide opportunities to develop leadership skills. These may be the two most important factors in creating job satisfaction and long-term loyalty, especially among Millennial women.” “This year’s survey shows women (67 percent) are slightly more likely than men (64 percent) to leave their employers within the next five years. One reason could be that 48 percent of female respondents say they are 'being overlooked for potential leadership positions.'” 2 min read | [Kelly Primus](https://www.leadingnow.biz/blog/author/kelly-primus) [Read ON!](https://www.leadingnow.biz/blog/what-is-your-company-planning-to-do-for-millennials) [Talent Development](https://www.leadingnow.biz/blog/topic/talent-development) [Gender Dynamics](https://www.leadingnow.biz/blog/topic/gender-dynamics) [Career](https://www.leadingnow.biz/blog/topic/career) [Millennials](https://www.leadingnow.biz/blog/topic/millennials) This is a search field with an auto-suggest feature attached. - There are no suggestions because the search field is empty. ### Subscribe #### Interested in receiving Leading NOW's latest insights on Leadership & Workplace Culture?
