In this groundbreaking episode, we delve into a revealing conversation with Ben Waber, CEO of Humanyze, who, alongside academic colleagues, conducted extensive research featured in the Harvard Business Review. Their study scrutinizes the work habits of thousands of American executives, exposing a disconcerting truth. Despite equal time investments, performance parity, and networking efforts, women still face a promotion gap in the corporate arena. Join us as we unravel the layers of unconscious bias impacting women's professional advancement and explore ways to dismantle these systemic barriers.
OUTLINE
00:00 - Introduction
00:59 - Can you shed light on the root causes of the persistent wage gap between a man and woman who put thr same effort and time for a job?
04:12 - In your article on how men and women are treated differently at work, you mentioned 'Weighted centrality.' Could you expand on whether the fear of sexual harassment might be holding women back from socialising or spending time with the so-called 'boys club'?
07:02 - The underrepresentation of women in leadership roles is a glaring issue. Only 7% of companies are led by women, and this trend persists across various fields. Does this statistic imply that men are inherently more competent than women in the workplace?
16:11 - Gender equality is a crucial Sustainable Development Goal (SDG 5), yet we continue to witness unequal pay and a lack of representation for women and girls, particularly at the policy-making level. What strategies should companies use to bridge this gap and achieve this goal?
21:15 - Let's delve into the complex topic of the 'fatherhood bonus' and 'motherhood penalty.' Fathers tend to earn more at work due to being perceived as responsible, while mothers face stagnant or reduced pay because they're seen as less committed. What are your insights on this issue, Ben?
