I read this article as well, and I thought it was wonderful. I'm a firm believer that here in the United States, it is detrimental that women unite in the same fashion. It is well known that business fields are primarily filled with men, but these days women are flooding into the industry. It is imperative that women encourage one anothers development and sustainable success! I actually work with Microsoft, and right now I’m really excited to spread the word about the “Vision to Venture” tour they’re having between April and May, which will consist of five live events. Featured speaker, John Jantsch is a marketing and digital technology coach, award-winning social media publisher, and author of Duct Tape Marketing: The World's Most Practical Small Business Marketing Guide.as well as many other speakers offering industry tips. Our first event was momentous and we hope to continue on with our success. You can see more and register at http://smallbusiness.officelive.com/v2v/ so let me know what you think! And if you have any questions, I’d be more than happy to answer them 

Tanya, thanks for letting us know about the Microsoft Vision to Venture tour. I am always wanting to let women know about everything and anything that will help them advance their careers. I cannot participate myself but I have registered for the webcast later.
