Caitlin Friedman and Kimberly Yorio offer advice on being a smart chick in-charge in their new book: The's Girl Guide to Being a Boss Without Being a Bitch. Yes, we can say that on morning television I 've been told. Good morning. Thrill liberating. Good morning to both of you, nice to have you here. Right. Those women need our book. Terrible. Absolutely. Why is it that women when they get into a position of power when they become the boss or become leaders they tend to be viewed as the bitch? Well, we think there's two reasons. The first is, it's really unfair that in the workplace people expect women to be emotionally there for them. It's all, you know, you would never take your personal problems to a male boss, but you, you do take them to a woman boss because women are nurturing just that's what women do. You expect them to understand. Exactly. The issues with their kids or whatever. Right, and the other thing is there have not been any positive women role, I mean,( there have not been.) There are very few positive women role models out there. Especially look all the movies, they say you know, woman are just crazy lunatics when they get a little power and so we try to do in the book is show people how to do it a little bit better. And we 'll get to some of that in a minute but why, why are the roles so different, Caitlin, for men and women when they do become the boss? Well, I think like Kim said( Kim, short for Kimberly), I think it really has to do with the lack of role models. I mean, when we were growing up and coming into the professional environment. We had really tough women bosses but they had learnt from men. So we think that women need to be able to manage, the way they are comfortable in managing. What's number one, number one mistake women are making? I think the number one mistake women are making is that they 're, they 're trying to do something the way that's not comfortable for them.
