Episode 17 - Women at Work: Breaking Barriers in a Challenging Landscape

Business Psychos Podcast

Description: In this episode, we delve into the challenges faced by women leaders in the US compared to their European counterparts. We examine historical and contemporary statistics on female workforce participation and explore how cultural norms and institutional policies impact women’s effectiveness at work. From the double bind of being criticized for both being too aggressive and not assertive enough to the benefits of European work-life balance policies, we discuss how systemic obstacles and societal expectations shape women’s professional experiences. Join us as we uncover the disparities and consider how we can better support and empower women leaders to achieve success on their own terms.
