Is there a moment
you'll never forget
because someone
wrote you off because
of your gender?
Patricia Jo Boyers
President/CEO/Co-Founder
Boycom Cablevision
The fearless Boyers was
recently elected to serve
another two years as the
Chair of ACA Connects, and
she continues to be a leader
in Missouri and beyond. Her
influence in the nation's capital
continues to grow, and she was named this year to
the FCC's Communications Equity and Diversity Council.
Her commitment to her community is unmatched,
and Boycom helps feed hundreds each year through its
participation in The Poplar Bluff United Gospel Rescue
Mission's Community Wide Thanksgiving Feast.
Forty years ago, I was comptroller
at a trucking company and had
implemented drastic changes that
were saving real dollars. It was time
for my annual review so I marched
into the office of the HR manager and
asked for a significant raise. I had
all the spreadsheets to prove just
exactly how many dollars I had saved
the company. What came out of that
Godly woman's mouth still stings.
" Patty, while we certainly appreciate
all of your efforts, your department
doesn't generate revenue, the sales
department does. We concentrate
our bonuses and salary increases with
the men in marketing and sales and of
course, the drivers. They have families
to feed. You have a husband to make
a living for you. "

I was a junior associate at a
Wall Street law firm in the 1990s
accompanying a partner into a
client meeting with an Eastern
European airline. I remember the
president of the airline assuming I
was an assistant. I don't know if it
was because I was a young woman
or a young Black woman, but it
was obvious he was surprised to
see me. He was embarrassed by his
assumptions, which I did not hold
against him since there weren't
many of us at law firms like that, and
he developed a deep respect over
the years, even thoughtfully sending
me the annual holiday calendars
from the airline.
