New study reveals 6 barriers keeping women from high-power networking:
indicate that women’s networks are just less powerful than men’s, and women are less able to utilize the networks they do have. Now new research delves into exactly why women's networks often pale in comparison to men's. Interviews with senior female executives in Germany revealed that the usual culprits like exclusion from old boys' networks were still in play. But, the researchers also found that these six obstacles are also keeping women from forming high-power networks.
Sadly, the female senior executive interviewees who had already achieved high levels of success in their careers were hesitant to network, because they doubted their own abilities. The researchers reported the women “were constrained by self-doubt and by limited faith in their own abilities to make valuable contributions to their networks.” Men, by contrast, were described as exuding confidence.
It’s important to note that no men were interviewed for this study. These findings were based purely on women’s perceptions of their own networking issues and their perceptions of men's networking strategies. Nonetheless, there seems to significant room for growth for women in this area. So, what can women do to improve their networks?
The structural obstacles, like women's larger role in child care, are tough to change, but women's moral concerns about exploiting their social ties have to end. This moral concern stems from women underestimating their own potential contribution to their networks. Because women lack the self-confidence to appreciate how much they can contribute to their social ties, they feel that they will take more from their networks than they can give.
