How Do You Keep Your North Star Without Also Exploiting Yourself?

We're kicking off a new series on Work Appropriate called "My Industry Is Failing." First up? Academia.  Professor Dominique Baker of SMU joins host Anne Helen Petersen to answer listeners' questions about surviving within academia when the whole institution seems irrevocably broken. Regardless of your own industry, you're sure to hear some familiar themes in these stories.

If you've got a workplace problem that feels emblematic of your own broken industry, we want to hear about it! Some of the realms we want to explore include health care, retail,  veterinary medicine, teaching, non-profits... the list goes on and on. Head to www.workappropriate.com to view submission guidelines and send us your question.
