Happy Thanksgiving : A Letter from the Publisher

The Glass Hammer has been live for just over two months now. We want to thank you for your support so far. We set up this online community as a “go to” place for women in finance to read news and advice to advance their career. Uniquely, the site is somewhere where we can go to share our related life experiences as let’s face it, the financial markets make for a different type of career.

We are all humans in our cubicles at the end of the day. We have lives and interests as well as being kick ass in our day jobs. You aren’t on your own, the women in the skyscraper next door is probably going through the same thing. We quickly found that anyone servicing the financial markets like lawyers and gals in financial IT found a home at The Glass Hammer. It’s good that we are sticking together; men have been doing it for years!

Our team are women who have worked in the securities industry in different forms and we thought that it would be cool to go to just one site to find out what’s going on in the industry. Find out also who is throwing a good networking event, what training is out there to improve skills and finally look for a new job if the time is right. All in one place. We hope you like it too. Let us know if we are missing any worthy event or if there is something you would like us to cover.

We hope that you are enjoying reading the news and advice that we try to provide from a unique perspective – mostly contributed by women in the industry (some men too have offered to write). This for a site for you, and some of it is written by you.

If you would like to write a blog for us or be interviewed by our team of writers please contact me nicki@theglasshammer.com
We can publish you anonymously – we want the good, the bad and the ugly.

Enjoy your turkey if you are in the US and if not, then happy Thursday – the weekend is just one day away.
