1. What Most People Get Wrong About Men and Women
Women negotiate poorly, lack confidence, are too risk-averse, or don't put in the requisite hours at work because they value family more than their careers.
Why have women failed to achieve parity with men in the workplace? Contrary to popular belief, it’s not because women prioritize their families over their careers, negotiate poorly, lack confidence, or are too risk-averse. Meta-analyses of published studies show that those ideas are myths—men and women actually have similar inclinations, attitudes, and skills. What does differ is the way they are treated on the job: Women have less access to vital information, get less feedback from supervisors, and face other obstacles to advancement. To ensure gender equity, the authors recommend that managers: (1) question the stereotypes behind their practices; (2) consider other factors that might explain the achievement gap; (3) change workplace conditions accordingly; and (4) keep challenging assumptions and sharing learning so as to create a culture in which all employees can reach their full potential.
