What is The Fix : Overcome the Invisible Barriers That Are Holding Women Back at Work about?
In the vein of #Girlboss and Nice Girls Don’t Get the Corner Office , discover how to thrive at work from the head of the Global Innovation Coalition for Change at UN Women with this “passionate, practical roadmap for addressing inequality and finally making our workplaces work for women” (Arianna Huffington). For years, we’ve been telling women that in order to succeed at work, they have to change themselves first— lean in , negotiate like a man, don’t act too nice or you’ll never get the corner office . But after sixteen years working with major Fortune 500 companies as a gender equality expert, Michelle King has realized one simple truth—the tired advice of fixing women doesn’t fix anything. The truth is that workplaces are gendered; they were designed by men for men. Because of this, most organizations unconsciously carry the idea of an “ideal worker,” typically a straight, white man who doesn’t have to juggle work and family commitments. Based on King’s research and exclusive interviews with major companies and thought leaders, It’s Not You, It’s Your Workplace reveals why denying the fact that women are held back just because they are women—what she calls gender denial
