The history of women includes cruel punishments for speaking out in public. Although the penalties for speaking out date back to medieval times some women still lack confidence and fail to speak out because of it.
Confidence coach, Rachel Green describes the torture implements used. She explains how her own mother did not speak out and how working women today can still endure put-downs when they do speak out. This may lead them to stay silent in meetings, to lack confidence at work, or to rely on hinting rather than using effective communication skills.
Rachel is interviewed by another confident woman, orthodontist, Shelley Greenway. Between them they unravel the history of women as it impacts on the communication skills and self-confidence of working women today. By understanding the history of women a lack of confidence can ease.
