Challenging Gender Bias in the Workplace

In the podcast, the authors of the book 'You Should Smile More' discuss how women face microaggressions and gender bias at work. They emphasize the importance of recognizing and addressing these small indignities, such as being told to smile more or facing gendered language. The authors highlight the need for 'micro-improvements' to create a more inclusive workplace culture, where women can be themselves without facing unfair judgments based on likeability. By advocating for diverse leadership styles and challenging biased feedback, they promote a more equitable environment for women in the workplace.
