I think women let themselves be burdened by failures much more than men do. They agonize - and I do it a lot, too - and rethink them.

You know what kind of companies generally survive? Companies that make more money than they spend. I know, duh, right?

I think that women are much more collaborative; men are much more competitive.

It's my job, but I think it is too much.

I can't tell you how many board meetings I've been in where the CEO is anguished over the impacts on morale that cost cutting or layoffs will bring about. You know what hurts morale even more than cost-cutting and layoffs? Going out of business.

It's important to make women feel confident, because I think they are more important than men.
