By writing her demise off as caused by sexism is not looking deep enough. The woman did just about everything wrong as someone who wants to influence the people who she needs to make change. She spoke down, and not at people. Frock even her goodbye letter sounded like a big F U I am better than you.
At any rate, this was a decent article I found last night, written by a woman, on how Redford just didn't get it.

So bottom line, maybe she had a bit less track to be a bad leader as a woman, but in the end she went about her good policies in totally the wrong way and got turfed. Time to move on and see how Smith does in the role in a few years. |
Its not so much Slava that is beating the sexism drum, he mentioned it was his wife that referred to it.
Slava needs to remember who the real Premier is back at "Casa Slava" and act accordingly.
The keys to a good marriage are agreeance!
