Show Notes
If women have equal leadership ability, why are they so under-represented at the top in business and society? Why are we still living in a world where virtually all the top jobs are occupied by men? And why do we accept it? Gill Whitty-Collins asks these questions in her book, Why Men Win at Work, and provides some answers for us in today's episode.
Some topics of discussion include:
- The current state of gender inequality in leadership and politics
- The (often) invisible forces that perpetuate the problem
- Likeability and perfectionist syndrome
- What men, businesses, and communities stand to gain with more equal workplaces
- Practical tips for women navigating these spaces
- Actionable steps for men, businesses, media, and more!
