I have been looking around for a management position. I have experience as an operational manager, but also have multiple certifications for project management. I also recently earned my MBA.
I see an opportunity listed for an IT project manager position within the church.
I am concerned about how the church treats women. They don't tend to view them as leaders. Obviously, a managerial position is a leadership position and requires the person holding that position to be granted a certain level of respect. This is not to say that the position alone should gain you respect, but that it is a requirement of being a functional manager.
If a woman is automatically written off as being "out of place" in a leadership position, it only makes the job ten times harder.
Is it even worth attempting?
