The phrase “take the bucket off your head” refers to a memorable interaction with a high school English teacher, who wanted to motivate one of the authors to be more assertive, voice her opinions and participate more frequently during class. Rather than calmly and rationally explain why she should speak up during group discussions, instead he blurted out to “take the bucket off your head!”
Hearing this awkward criticism as a 15 year old girl in high school has transitioned into a life-long goal to communicate clearly, rationally, and effectively. Take the Bucket off Your Head is a reference to women seeking to promote their assertion in organizations and lead authentically, without stifling their true direction and leadership intentions.
