Update: Design a cover for the Magazine's 2008 Annual 4:29pm on 22 Jan 2009 Is it me, or has this been further delayed?
Top woman for commission job? 1:31pm on 03 Oct 2008 As a very senior woman in my organisation I should express my shock at hizento's comments - but noting his views I doubt he'd understand why or even consider my opinion worth listening to.

So, can I (following his logic) reject all male MPs and men in positions of power because I see so many do a poor job of it?

Gender (and race, sexuality, etc.) have nothing to do with competency or lack of it.
Do we all need a nudge? 12:54pm on 23 Jun 2008 For me, you can do a lot in terms of how you yourself behave - in other words, give a nudge by role-modelling the behaviour you want to see.

Be polite and courteous to children and young people - treat them as you would any other human being, rather than as a nuisance. Not only will you be a rare exception in their experience but hopefully you will be modelling the kinds of behaviour we want them to demonstrate.

If someone drops litter in the street, pick it up and give it back to them, noting that they seem to have dropped something. They usually get the nudge and look for a bin. I'll be honest, I do carefully pick who I try this on though...

And I agree with tedyeoman's comment - I'd also add not having people 'win' by cheating/ lying (yes, him-from-The-Apprentice, I do mean you and others like you)
