In this thought-provoking episode, Mary is joined by her friend and leadership expert, Dr. Christine Nowik, to unpack the concept of Invisible Labor, particularly in the workplace. Together, they delve into how unpaid and often unrecognized tasks—such as emotional labor, office housekeeping, and conflict management—disproportionately fall on women due to societal expectations. Christine shares insights from her extensive leadership experience and academic expertise, shedding light on the profound impact Invisible Labor has on organizational culture and women’s roles. This conversation offers listeners a fresh perspective on gender dynamics in professional spaces and sets the stage for a follow-up episode exploring Invisible Labor in personal relationships.
