A woman who goes to work can wake up before
sunrise and prepare children for school, prepare the husband for work and upon
coming back from work they make sure the family is fed and everything is in
order before they take to sleep. These are virtues of character and no wonder
when they go to work they also tend to outperform men who are at the same level
with them.

The same order they put around the house is the
same order they transmute and apply into business and leadership. This has
found many women rise to influential positions around the globe across various
disciplines.
However, these abilities that women have exhibited
in the corporate world and politics have also imparted an ego into most women
such that they are experiencing problems that have paralysed their
relationships with men and society is casting a negative conjuration at the
successful women.
To a greater extent it’s true that most women
neglect their relationships when they get elevated at work. Instead of having a
mother around the house, we now have a manager or chief executive officer
bossing around the house.
The reason why most women in business and
leadership are looked at with contempt is because most women who are at the top
have neglected their fundamental roles within their homes and in relationships.
Unlike men, women have a tendency of enforcing
their authority wherever they are regardless of limits of their jurisdiction.
When a wife can bring home more bacon and bread than the husband then they lose
respect for the man of the house. Men were created as providers for the family
and the moment these roles are switched off or swapped then the order of things
is thrown off and the relationship is out of sync.
Men feel it when they are not esteemed within the
house as providers even though they might not blubber about it; but in one way
or the other their affection for the woman is reduced and they will act like
they are dealing with another man. When that happens, the woman will feel as if
the man’s ego has blocked her way to happiness and the next thing will be
divorce. That is why most women who are in leadership positions either in
business, religious circles or politics have suffocating marriages.
Women in business and leadership are real women
who can also be like our everyday housewives but the demands of leadership do
not allow them to put up with traditional chores and tasks. This does not strip
their womanhood off. The problem only comes when they cease to treat men with
the respect they deserve. Men hate to be undermined and any threat to their
confidence is quickly highlighted as an intimidation.
Therefore, most women who are in leadership
positions have failed to maintain a healthy marital life because it seems as if
their success has overtaken their need for masculine figures in their lives.
Men, as protectors and providers tend to be
useless when the woman flaunts enough security and provision that her money
provides. This is an error that should be corrected. No matter how high you
climb the ladder, always remember to remain a woman to your husband. Show him
you need his provision and protection regardless of your abilities to do so by
yourself.
