This article finds that women’s power took a long time to develop, and women suffered from stereotypes and discrimination while working.

Based on these, this article finds that improving female status and breaking and turning stereotypes into benefits and policy supports are conducive to helping women. It is necessary to provide equal chances to women as men while working. Plus, women can use their advantages, such as empathy and emotional intelligence, to make a career.
