#113 Laurie Weingart - Breaking the dead end cycle: the invisible workload that's holding women back
This conversation left me with a deep understanding as another piece of the jigsaw puzzle clicked into place. That feeling when something finally makes sense and you can start to feel the solution. The research is clear. Women are doing more of the “non-promotable” work in organisations, leading to burnout and being overlooked for promotions. Professor Laurie Weingart, Carnegie Mellon,is co-author of the recently released book “The No Club. Putting an end to Women’s Dead end work” Together with 4 academic colleagues they formed The No Club. Initially in response to their own challenges navigating their careers. Then they realised something much bigger was going on. Together we discuss how do we help women reach and retain senior roles if we can’t get off this merry go round of carrying an additional burden of work in the office. Work that doesn’t lead to promotion. This conversation should be compulsory viewing for leaders, for anyone focused on organisational design and anyone passionate about accelerating women’s careers. If you are ambitious to make a bigger impact, but can’t shake the exhaustion, this conversation is for you.
