You are managing a project team mostly made up of men. Recently Jane was hired for her high expertise in the brands that make up your industry. You notice she has been left out of some key meetings, and others are overlooking her opinions. You also notice she is paid significantly less than her male colleagues. What will you do next?

A$.$ Make steps to update her pay to the same range as the others on your project, and ask her opinion and advice specifically during each meeting $($along with others in your team$).$

B$.$ Take the lower pay as a win for your project, as it will help keep costs low and her colleagues don't need to know.

C$.$ Ask Jane to write down her knowledge of the industry, just in case she leaves.

D$.$ No need to rock the boat $-$ this is just how people work in this industry.
