The Secret of Management?

Our second management class today made me remember another quirky fact about myself – I have never had a male boss in my life.  Even when I worked at a gas station in high school, the owner/manager of the station was a woman.  When I worked for a cable TV company in summers during college, both my immediate supervisor and my boss were female.  When I started working for the Sask Publishers Group and the Saskatchewan Library Association, all three of my bosses between the two organizations were female.  When I did a short stint at the Sask Motion Picture Association, you guessed it.  When I moved to Calgary and started with the Writers Guild of Alberta, the Executive Director was a woman.  When she left the organization, her replacement was a woman.  When I returned to Saskatchewan, I went back to one of the same bosses I had originally.  They say that the majority of managers in libraries tend to be men even though it's a female-dominated profession so it'll be interesting to see where my career takes me after I finish this program!
