M: Please join me in welcoming Sally Kraws. Sally, I wanna ask you a little about your own career, starting with the fact that Wall Street is an aggressively macho environment. Is it an advantage or a disadvantage to be a woman in that world?
W: There’s something about having gone to an all-girl school in South Carolina. It was tougher than Wall Street. I had all the stories, and they mocked. It was not pretty. It was not good.
M: Girls are tougher than boys.
W: Yeah. Girls are tough. There was nothing they could do to me on Wall Street in the 80’s that was as tough as what happened at my girl school.
M: Awful. You have said that everybody makes one false step coming out of business schools. What was it in your case?
W: My false step coming out of the business school was that I actually could not find a job coming out of the business school. My mistake was as a young investment banker, I became very happily and joyfully pregnant. I quit. I would advise any young pregnant lady not to do so. You can go to another department if it’s not working. It took me about two weeks to realize that I had made a mistake. I further compounded (使恶化,加重) my error by trying to have an interview to go back to work on Wall Street while I was pregnant.
M: So tough.
W: It did not work.
M: It did not work?
W: It did not work. I’ve been rejected by every firm on Wall Street. The great news about it is that I spent the time sort of stewing, and then it hit me that I wanted to be a research analyst. I’m not sure if I had taken the time to really think about what I liked and disliked at that time, and if I would have found the right path.
M: Now, you were once a research analyst. That is largely a solitary (单独的,无伴的) job. You went from that to becoming the CEO. Suddenly you began leading 400 people. What was the most important element in making that change successful?
W: To be an analyst, to be a successful analyst, to your point, solitary, fine. But actually meanwhile you have to embrace the spotlight. It’s OK for people to look at me. It’s OK for me to be out there, making mistakes. The job of running the business, being the CEO was very different. OK was not enough. It had to be completely turned to other people. And I think that a lot of folks stumble on the transition because they can’t easily move from "It’s all about me." to "It’s all about you. "
M: You seem to have a particular ability to be blunt (直言不讳的,耿直的), to be frank. Do you have any insight into why it’s easy for you, or why it’s hard for so many other people?
W: Do you know what is the worst thing that is going to happen? If you do not tell the truth, you do not act ethically, and you do not deliver the bad news, there are a lot of downsides there. Right? Careers are ruined, and reputations are ruined.
M: All right! Sally Kraws, great to see you.
W: Thank you.
