Description

Historically, what we’ve seen is that when women achieve power in a man’s world, they often out-men the men. Margaret Thatcher was famous for rarely promoting other women. She got off on being the only woman in the room and didn’t want any competition. Nothing is more depressing than a successful woman who wants to score points for being the only one among the boys – reinforcing, rather than challenging, their views of other women. Women running the world is neither a utopian nor a dystopian scenario. It really depends on the political thinking that is brought to bear. As women age, our power changes very differently to the way male power changes. As the female leader of a national art museum, I am still highly unusual globally. ‘It would change the presumption there’s someone at home to sort out all the problems’ This rule can save every item in your inventory after your death, so you won't lose important stuff. A democratic assembly would almost certainly replace them with something like Keynes's "International Clearing Union", which would force creditors as well as debtors to eliminate third world debt and improve the balance of trade.

I know it’s tempting to say that it would be better if more women were doing this and more women were doing that. But I believe power corrupts absolutely. We can think of some extraordinarily vicious, brutal and cruel women who have been in great powerful positions. To me, it just wouldn’t make much difference.” ‘All my life experience tells me women make a difference’ But, in the early 1970s, Moses got obsessed with the idea that smoothness was the key to speed. He wanted to somehow manage an even 13 strides between hurdles through the race – this would ensure the racing rhythm was not broken because he wouldn’t have to switch between legs to jump. The way to achieving that, he concluded, was to train for endurance (1,500m and cross country) as much as for acceleration (100m and 200m). I hope to see a world with greater peace and diplomacy, collaboration and cooperation. Women are less likely engage in wars or violence – as the protection of families and communities is central to their decision-making. They propel their countries – and the world – towards socioeconomic success. And they work to promote social justice and inclusion, climate change management and reduced hunger, poverty and inequality. ‘There are still so many meetings where women are not even in the room’ But it's not hard to see how a world parliament could bypass and undermine dictatorships. Just as proportional representation in European elections has encouraged us to start questioning our own, flawed system, genuine global democracy would highlight democratic deficits all over the world.

For a routine this is enough, but it’s hard to sustain for a whole novel. And despite all the travelling around I never felt we went anywhere. I was reminded of those stadium comedians who walk up and down a massive stage endlessly, as if giving us some sort of journey. Fischer is a great literary comedian, but with this novel there’s not so much a sense of an author running out of steam but a whole genre dying on its feet.

Starting on an individual level is great, but electing candidates that have the same values as you can help lead to changes on a larger level. Stay informed about the officials that are running in your local and national elections and research what they stand for and believe in. While no candidate will be absolutely perfect, look for the one that shares most of your views and be sure to vote for them in upcoming elections.

You’ve probably felt a warm and fuzzy feeling when someone says something nice about you, so why not return the favor? Say something that shows your appreciation for how they handle themselves emotionally or treat other people. Make sure you act sincere when you give your compliment so you come across as genuine. Even a few small words can have a huge impact on them. [5] X Research source It is often the unseen women, the executives, who have an opportunity to mobilise and encourage other women. Four inspirations from my own career: Clare Hollingworth, the woman who got the scoop of the century about the outbreak of the second world war. I met her when I was deputy editor of the Daily Telegraph, and she assumed I was the editor’s secretary, which amused me. She was a woman of her time, a pioneer rather than a reformer. Marie Colvin, the Sunday Times reporter, was sisterly as well as brave. Genevieve Cooper was deputy editor of the Evening Standard when I joined. I was a 24-year-old single mother and my male boss asked me how I could guarantee that a baby would not interfere with my work. I was so fearful that, when my small son was in hospital, I commuted between his ward and work, inventing excuses to leave the office rather than admit that I had a seriously ill child. Genevieve rescued me. At the Guardian, the late Georgina Henry showed that you could have vision and authority without losing your humanity. She was a top-notch female boss. ‘Oppression will not cease to exist simply because a woman is in charge’
