Are you at a loss for how to handle those seemingly small awkward moments at work? Whether it’s being interrupted, talked over, hearing women referred to as girls, or getting a men’s polo shirt as a company gift. It can be hard to know how to appropriately handle these behaviors and situations, and easy to convince yourself it’s not a big deal. But it is a big deal. Because these behaviors create a culture that make women feel like they are not appreciated or respected as colleagues or team members. Hence, my conversation with Dawn Hudson.  In this episode Dawn and I chatted about: Why she and the Band of Sisters decided to focus on gender rooted micro-aggressions in the workplace? The variety of suggestions for the same scenario provided by the different authors and how impacted their relationships and the approach to the book. What’s at stake for companies if they don’t address microaggressions in the workplace. Advice Dawn would give to anyone looking to advance their career.
