YOU SHOULD SMILE MORE
Dawn Hudson Lori Tauber Marcus Cie Nicholson Mitzi Short Angelique Bellmer Krembs Katie Lacey
How to Dismantle Gender Bias in the Workplace
In a straightforward and effective manner - reminiscent of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's Dear Ijeawele, or A Feminist Manifesto in Fifteen Suggestions - both men and women will appreciate You Should Smile More as it's a completely fresh, pragmatic, and realistic "how to" for tackling the lingering effects of gender bias in the workplace.
This is not about #MeToo moments; this is about micro-offenses; this is about the small, awkward, or uncomfortable moments that slow-build until the unwelcome environment takes hold and women disengage. Here you have six executive level changemakers who have seen it all, from the bottom rung to the boardroom. They know firsthand how hard it is to navigate gendered situations in the moment. Here they share their experience with a forward-looking eye - often with humor - and they always recognize the realities of the workplace.
It's also a call-to-action against the very advice women so frequently hear from male colleagues or bosses. This book spotlights all-too-familiar moments and offers realistic strategies every witness can use to confront and productively address them.
Written by six C-suite women with a collective resume covering 29 industries, the book proves their points with first-hand accounts, providing great insight. They know firsthand how hard it is to navigate gendered situations in the moment. There are no confusing moments, even when the solutions to certain issues in the workplace could not easily or neatly be resolved.
Situations the authors address range from things like use of the term "girl" versus "woman," watching male colleagues leave work for a social event where women colleagues were left off the invite list or hearing that a qualified woman shouldn't be offered an assignment because she has small children at home. You Should Smile More shows witnesses, allies, supervisors, and women at every level in their careers how to dismantle everyday gender bias, based upon the latest research, personal accounts, and interviews with dozens of professionals, both women and men.
Dawn Hudson, Cie Nicholson, Mitzi Short, Katie Lacey, Lori Tauber Marcus, and Angelique Bellmer Krembs met over the course of a decade and remained in close touch while working as senior executives in over twenty industries, in influential businesses of varied sizes and life stages, and in those with diverse employee bases. They have held titles of CEO, CMO, SVP, Board Member, Board Advisor, Vice Chairperson, Executive Coach, and Investor. The breadth and depth of their combined experience is unmatched in the field of women's leadership and building inclusive and high performing corporate cultures.
