Efforts to slay the work-life balance dragons are finally center stage—studies, books, and powerful women have made it a buzzy cause du jour. But that doesn’t mean every single woman with a corporate success story should be expected to discuss this issue at length, especially in contexts meant to highlight their career accomplishments.
Such was the unfortunate case at the Dreamforce Women’s Innovation Panel held recently in San Francisco, where O Magazine editor-at-large and CBS morning anchor Gayle King interviewed Honest Company CEO Jessica Alba and YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki, ostensibly to discuss career highlights. Only that’s not really how it went.
Writing at The Next Web, Lauren Hockenson notes that rather than focus on these women’s impressive accomplishments—both oversee billion-dollar enterprises—King softballed them with mommy talk, turning what should have been a look at their career trajectories into “a complete farce.”
