About This Episode
The path to gender equality in the workplace remains frustratingly slow despite decades of well-intentioned efforts. What if we've been focusing on the wrong solutions all along? Harvard researcher and author Siri Chilazi joins us to challenge conventional wisdom about advancing women in the workplace. Her groundbreaking research shows how we need to fix the systems that weren't originally designed for women's success, offering evidence-based approaches that actually work. Whether you're a leader seeking to create a more inclusive workplace or someone navigating career advancement, Siri provides practical advice for creating fairness through measurable, data-driven approaches rather than performative initiatives. The key to progress isn't adding more one-off programs; it's embedding fairness into our everyday business processes and measuring results with the same rigor we apply to other business goals. Listen in and discover how small, evidence-based changes can create significant impact in creating workplaces where everyone truly has an equal opportunity to succeed.
