Too sexy for ya? Yahoo CEO poses for Vogue

 Marissa Mayer’s glamour shot has sparked a boatload of debate about whether sexy magazine photos are appropriate for a CEO.

The glamour-shot photo of Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer in the September issue of Vogue is tame by fashion-magazine standards, but the fact that a huge company’s chief exec is lying on a deck chair in a form-fitting dress has divided the business community.

An online CNBC poll asking whether Mayer’s photo was appropriate for a CEO got more than 3,700 responses, 60 percent of which said it was fine, 40 percent of which said it was not OK.

Detractors say it reflects a double standard.

“I can't think of the last time a men's magazine chose to profile a CEO by asking him to sprawl out on a couch,” Patrice Grell Yursik, creator of Afrobella.com, told CNN. “When, let's say, GQ or Esquire is profiling someone on this level, they're not asking them to unbutton their shirt and pose suggestively with any kinds of props.”

Another commenter, Anna Nicole Moose, said "We fight so hard to be where we are and prove that it wasn't our cute bodies, perky boobs, or cute face that got us there.”

Several other critics pointed out that an implication seems to be that women who wouldn’t get a photo like Mayer’s in Vogue seem to be at a disadvantage when trying to snag CEO jobs.

As the CNBC poll indicates, plenty of others think Mayer’s photo is OK. Blogger Justgngr wrote:

There’s no reason that beautiful women can’t be industry leaders. Part of achieving equality for women in the workplace means that women shouldn’t have to succumb to societal pressures – in both directions. Women shouldn’t have to “harden” or “soften” themselves when in positions of leadership, but that also means women shouldn’t have to downplay their beauty in order to succeed.

Communications choreographer Kevin Brett blogged that the very fact that people are talking about the photo may have been the very purpose of it:

How many other publicly traded company CEOs would be invited by Vogue to pose in a horizontal fashion? What subliminal messages are being sent, particularly in a predominant Silicon Valley engineering culture? Talk about tongues wagging at the water cooler and the inevitable social media chat.

Maybe that is what this gambit is all about?

What do you think of the photo? Too far? No problem? A big publicity gambit? Please let us know in the comments.

Money Beliefs

                                           

 Positive Belief About Money
         

Our body and minds are stronger and more complexed than most people realize. We are capable of much more. People place too many limits on what they can do. Learning to believe in yourself and your abilities is a hard job that never ends. Although, it does get easier with time. You need to start pushing yourself. Attempting things that are just outside your ability. I know, your saying to yourself, "I push myself," or "I do my best," but I am still struggling with money issues, then you are still stuck in the old belief pattern. You have to believe you can go past your limits. By putting in the time and effort you WILL succeed. You have abundance. As you succeed, your confidence will grow. One of the best things about expanding your limits, is that things that used to be impossible, or out of reach or due to financial woes, can now be apart of your everyday life! By building the belief in your ability, you can accomplish anything in life.

Visualize a Sea of Abundance
As you are able to truly conceive of more, more will come into your life. Visualization is a brilliant tool. Meditate on your abundance. Meditation: is a time-honored technique that can take you into infinite dimensions of consciousness. It is a simple effort that becomes effortless as we do it more and more. One major principle to meditation is in the ability to completely quiet your mind. Meditation helps us live a healthier, less stressful life. The physical and psychological benefits are wonderful. The Universe can only distribute to you what you have in your consciousness and you can ALWAYS create more in your consciousness. The practice of meditation helps us temporarily let the physical world go so that we can begin to see ourselves as we truly are spiritually enlightened beings.

Gaining Abundance through Giving
like everything else in life, money ebbs and flows. Giving is the natural process that leads to the flow of receiving. Allowing yourself to "let go" and to give freely, creates more abundance than you can imagine. Holding and hording only halts the flow of energetic thought and therefore, the flowing of abundance.

Allow Yourself Pleasure
Give yourself pleasure with your money. You truly deserve it and if you don't think so, you need to go back and re-evaluate as to why you don't think you deserve it. Enjoy the spending of money. What old belief is stopping you? Change it!

Pay Your Bills With Great Thanks
if you feel resentment every time you have to pay a bill, the money will come back to you even slower. If you pay with love and joyfulness, you open the free flowing channel of abundance. Remember, a bill is an acknowledgment of your ability to pay. Some one gives you the product or the service first, entrusting you for good reason; that you are able, capable and a dependable person. So pay each bill with thanks and appreciation.

Make Room for Money
Cluttered space means a cluttered mind. Remove everything in your life that you do not absolutely LOVE. Making order out of chaos is the natural way of the Universe. Clutter means confusion and the fact that you do not have a handle on things. Money is one of those things. It is a hard concept to accept, but you will see, that once you clear the clutter, you open yourself and your environment up for new change.

Enough, Not More
Insatiability is the glutinous act of never having enough, never content with what you are given. We often buy what we don't need or want, but believe we should have it, as opposed to looking at what we really want and then moving toward it. The constant desire for more is not only damaging to us personally, but feeds into a greater belief that there is never enough to go around. Money is only a means of exchange. That is all.
