Navigating the Pipeline: Women in Business and Leadership
Dr. Alexis Smith Washington — Spears School of Business Senior Inclusion Officer, Associate Professor of Management and William S. Spears Chair of Business Administration
Recent media attention has focused on women’s reported lack of confidence and ambition in professional settings. Do women leave corporations due to lack of confidence, or do corporations push women who want it all out? Research suggests it is a little of both. This seminar focuses on navigating the corporate jungle, avoiding internal and external pitfalls, and rising to the top. We first discuss continuing barriers to gender equality, including gender rules, implicit biases, and dis - crimination. We close with a discussion of the organizational remedies for ending limiting gender stereotypes, and, instead, advancing both men’s and women’s success in business. This seminar is sponsored by the Department of Management and the Center for Executive and Professional Development in the Spears School of Business at Oklahoma State University. Participants earn 0.2 continuing education units (CEUs) upon completion of this seminar.
