Careers in Tolerance

This chapter considers the media of acting, music, and literature. That should not be taken as an attempt to minimize the opportunities for careers in tolerance offered by other media. Film and television are especially promising choices for those seeking careers in tolerance. In terms of accessibility and career opportunities, literature exists somewhere between acting and music. And while publishing houses, marketing firms, and translators offer opportunities for those whose talents do not run to writing, they are not so massive as the support structures for television and film.

It enhances skills such as self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills. Women's empowerment is a crucial factor in modern international business.
