When women speak, they shouldnt be shrill. Clothing must flatter, but short skirts are a no-no. After all, sexuality scrambles the mind. Women should look healthy and fit, with a good haircut and manicured nails. These were just a few pieces of advice that around 30 female executives at Ernst & Young received at a training held in the accounting giants gleaming new office in Hoboken, New Jersey, in June 2018. The 55-page presentation, used during the day-and-a-half seminar on leadership and empowerment, was given to HuffPost by an attendee who was appalled by its contents. Full of out-of-touch advice, the presentation focused on how women need to fix themselves to fit into a male-dominated workplace. The training, called Power-Presence-Purpose or PPP ... was billed to participants as advice on how to be successful at EY, according to Jane, a training attendee and former executive director at the firm. Attendees were even told that womens brains are 6% to 11% smaller than mens, Jane said. She wasnt sure why they were told this, nor is it clear from the presentation. Womens brains absorb information like pancakes soak up syrup so its hard for them to focus, the attendees were told. Mens brains are more like waffles. Theyre better able to focus because the information collects in each little waffle square. The only reason to talk to women about their size of their brains is to make them feel inferior to men, said Bruce McEwen, a neuroscientist at Rockefeller University.
