Information Changes Everything

Lise Vesterlund exposes the invisible labor holding women back


Listen Later

In this episode of "Information Changes Everything,", we hear from economist and professor Lise Vesterlund, who examines why women in the workforce are disproportionately asked to perform “non-promotable work.” This work, often essential yet undervalued, leaves women overcommitted and underutilized in their careers. Lise Vesterlund is the Andrew W. Mellon Professor of Economics at the University of Pittsburgh, director of the Pittsburgh Experimental Economics Laboratory, and co-author of "The No Club: Putting a Stop to Women’s Dead-End Work," a Financial Times top business book.
