Reading For Success

This week, Kristen Hayer reviews:

• Why Sexual Harassment Programs Backfire: And What To Do About It, by Frank Dobbin and Alexandra Kalev (May/June 2020 HBR)
• How Women Rise, by Sally Helgesen and Marshall Goldsmith, Chapters 1-3

If you're reading along, next week we'll be reviewing chapters 4-10 on the first 6 of 12 habits that can hold women back. This book is available on Amazon and Audible.

I'm so excited that the authors of our recent book agreed to an interview! We talk about why they wrote the book, who they wrote it for, what they loved about the project, and what's next. Oh, and Ruben and I have a small disagreement on whether or not there are Gainsight sales pitches in the book. All in good fun. Enjoy!

If you're interested in more information on the great new project they talk about at the end of the interview, here are links to their LinkedIn profiles so you can connect.
