Your Brilliant Career

Social conditioning and the art of 'unlearning'


Listen Later

It’s true! Women feel “less entitled” than their male colleagues to job opportunities, and the research tells us that they are less likely to ask for a pay rise or a promotion.

One of the reasons is that we have been socially conditioned over time to feel less entitled to work opportunities than men. I know some of you might scoff at that and say – well, not me – and I hope that’s the case – but a recent LinkedIn survey with 2000 Australian women affirmed that seven in 10 women do feel less entitled than men. And at the more senior ranks, the stats are even higher. 

What does this tell us? We need to look inward, learn more and be curious. I wonder if you are avoiding disruption at work or if your social conditioning is limiting your performance.  Today’s conversation  with Alicia Jabbar is going to be very revealing.
