Salary negotiations should be about qualifications and experience, but research shows that gender bias plays a significant role in the outcomes—even in school business leadership. So how does gender influence pay in the education sector, and what can be done to close the gap?

In this episode of School Business Insider, we sit down with Dr. Ron Clamser, Assistant Superintendent for Business at Putnam | Northern Westchester BOCES, to explore the findings of his dissertation, The Effect of Gender Bias on Salary Negotiation Outcomes. Dr. Clamser shares key insights from his research, discusses how bias influences salary negotiations in school finance, and provides an update on how these issues have evolved since he first conducted his study.

Whether you’re negotiating your own salary, advocating for pay equity, or looking to understand the broader implications of gender bias in leadership, this episode delivers data-driven insights, real-world examples, and practical strategies.
