There's a tremendous loss of talent to businesses who cannot make room for their employees to attend to family responsibilities. It really amounts to corporate waste: They hire really talented women and then lose them because they can't find ways to keep them productive and content the minute they can't lean in.
Anne-Marie Slaughter
Biological sex should not determine what we are capable of, what we aspire to, what we do in our life.
Anne-Marie Slaughter
We all love narratives where we're the captain of our boat, and Americans love them more than anybody else.
Anne-Marie Slaughter
I see much less of an ambition gap and much more of a workplace and society that isn't allowing us to use the talent that is multiplied well beyond this room ... There are millions of women out there who ... need more than, Honey, you can do it if you try hard enough.
Anne-Marie Slaughter
Someone must transform income into the food, shelter, clothing, nurture, discipline, education, minding, nursing, transportation, and emotional support that creates life outside of the office, permits survival of the race, cares for the ill and disabled, and makes life livable when we can no longer care for ourselves.
Anne-Marie Slaughter
Our approach [to global security] has changed by the way we've elevated development. The biggest lesson is to recognize global responsibility.
Anne-Marie Slaughter
I’d been part, albeit unwillingly, of making millions of women feel that they are to blame if they cannot manage to rise up the ladder as fast as men and also have a family and an active home life (and be thin and beautiful to boot).
