Andie Kramer and Al Harris, dynamic duo of practicing attorneys who have been mentoring women and speaking and writing about gender communication, including the book “It’s Not You, It’s the Workplace” join me on this episode to chat about why traditional corporate workplaces don’t normally offer a work/home integration, why women feel like it’s a zero sum game in when climbing the ranks, why it might be your fault when it comes to working alongside colleagues, and how we can be a better advocate for all in the working world.
Stick around to the end where I’m going to distill takeaways from your conversation including statistics about why the gender gap exists and some practical questions we can all have a better time at work.
