Workplace Allies

Too many gender diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives focus on how women themselves should address inequities and obstacles, reinforcing the perception that these are “women’s issues” alone and that men—often the most influential stakeholders in an organization—don’t need to be involved. Gender-in-the-workplace experts David G. Smith, PhD and W. Brad Johnson, PhD show why and how men have a crucial role to play in promoting gender equality at work, helping them become more effective allies with women and more inclusive leaders in the workplace.
