Join us as Mette Johansson unpacks some of the most pervasive myths that perpetuate gender inequality in the workplace. Mette brings her insightful expertise from her latest book, Narratives, on existing stereotype like women are too emotional for leadership roles.
Listen in as we scrutinize the 'queen bee syndrome', the complex landscape of women's ambition, especially after they become mothers, and the misguided belief that women inherently fail to support each other in professional environments. The conversation also addresses the societal narratives that limit women's progress, emphasizing the collective effort needed to rewrite these stories. Tune in to be inspired by the arguments and skills that can empower women and their allies to forge paths toward a more equitable workplace.
