There is no question that the gap exists – the question is, what can we do to close the gap?

At JSC, there seems to be equality in the “top” jobs that women and men hold. Take a look at MCC – you are just as likely to find a female flight director as a male.

So why does the “wage gap” persist? Are women failing to be assertive at the negotiating table? Are we not instilling in our girls enough of a sense of their own worth? Take a look at this article and tell us what you think.
