There are a lot of subtle things that are harder to stamp out of a culture in terms of male entrepreneurs being mentored more than female entrepreneurs... male entrepreneurs getting several strikes against them before they're kind of let go, whereas female entrepreneurs, it's kind of one strike and you're out.

As women and men, we're not primed and taught to feel that women are as inspirational as men.

I think, so often, female cofounders are positioned in this competitive, catty way. It's just awful. It's not reality.

Real-time feedback and coaching promotes learning. When feedback is connected to compensation, feedback is muted, distorted, and given less frequently.
