Bossed Up – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Men comprise over 90% of the CEOs in the U.S.—so how do we help them become allies in the vital pursuit of workplace equality? Rather than dismissing the defensiveness that sometimes arises in men who believe promoting more women to power means taking theirs away, Wendy Wallbridge uses her platform to change the narrative. She teaches tech companies how to create cultures of belonging and strategies for workplace equality, with a focus on equipping men as allies. Her strategies show next-generation business leaders that the right approach to equality lifts everyone up: the employee, the executive, and the company.

Discover how both men and women leaders can pursue gender equality in the workplace, including:

• The very real benefits of gender equality for men in positions of power;
• Why emotional intelligence is the leadership skill of the future;
• The three biggest challenges facing women and non-binary people in the workplace;
• How to use micro-interventions to improve inequality in the corporate world.

Earlier this year, the FTC put forth a ruling that would ban non-compete agreements nationwide. But last month, a Texas federal court blocked this endeavor, leaving workers in limbo while the Supreme Court considers taking up the issue next. In today’s episode, I explore what’s going on and why there is still hope for a new path forward to defeat non-compete agreements for good.

Get the latest details on this recent workers’ rights development:

• Why the lack of a federal ban isn’t the end of the story;
• Where the power to prevent harmful non-competes lies now;
• What we as citizens can do to foster fair policies for workers.

Gen Xers have a wealth of experience and talent to offer the workforce, and yet Millennials and Baby Boomers tend to receive the majority of the media focus and career advice available today. Even Bossed Up doesn’t have as much information for this generation as it could.

In doing my part to correct this oversight, I speak with Vince Chan, host of the Chief Change Officer podcast. A Gen Xer herself, Vince supports Gen X professionals as they traverse critical career crossroads. In this episode, Vince shares how the shared traits of this group result in a resilient generation with so much to offer—often more than even they realize.

Discover how Gen X navigates career transformation, including:

• How Gen X’s deep respect for institutions can help them and hold them back;
• The lifetime of technological shifts Gen Xers have navigated
• Why Gen X needs to set aside a fear of judgment and love themselves more.
