Women’s experiences as parents in the workplace are completely different from men’s. Men get a “fatherhood wage premium,” while mothers encounter a “motherhood penalty” in wages and advancement opportunities. One might think that women without children have workplace advantages on a par with their male counterparts. But they don’t. The maternal wall hinders all women’s careers, whether they plan to have children or not.

My girlfriend is a manager at a psychiatric office, but I feel that her male boss crosses the line in conversations — for example, giving her his opinion on periods and how she shouldn’t have one and telling her she should get a IUD and so on.

This post was written by Alison Green and published on Ask a Manager. A reader writes: One of my employees texts me at 10:45 pm. I’m wondering how I can firmly but fairly lay down boundaries and let her know it’s not okay or respectful of my free time to message so late. I answer this question — and three others — over at Inc. today, where I’m revisiting letters that have been buried in the archives here from years ago (and sometimes updating/expanding my answers to them).

Many organizations become locked in a self-created paradox while pursuing sustainable leadership. While striving for long-term sustainability, they unintentionally damage their efforts through traditional recognition processes. This disparity between sustainability objectives and employee recognition is more than a small oversight; it is a significant problem at the core of many business plans.

When you face a true crisis, how do you react? Do you stress out? Do you look for someone to blame? Perhaps instead you can approach the crisis like a Hollywood director. Today’s post is by Tom Reilly, author of The Hollywood MBA I have spent three decades running movie sets which has always required me to anticipate and stave off problems on a daily, if not hourly, and even minute-by-minute basis.

Today, we’re diving into a challenging yet crucial topic: leading someone with a victim mentality. Let’s jump right in! Victim mentality is that mindset where someone feels something is always happening to them, and they can’t do anything about it. Have you seen it? Someone on your team who constantly blames others for their circumstances, never taking responsibility for their actions.

The world of work has fundamentally changed. The series of waves that the pandemic began have rippled through the Great Resignation, quiet quitting, the Great Regret, and other eloquent phrases that boil down to the same thing: people aren’t engaged at work or enabled to perform at their best. The truth is that engagement and enablement is more important than ever, but how we do it is the critical differentiator for many organizations.

"The best in the world are not the best because they win every point. It's because they lose again and again and have learned how to deal with it." This quote from Roger Federer has got a lot of coverage in social media and deservedly so.

Additionally, 62% of employees report feeling disengaged, and 15% actively disengaged. The former typically put in minimal effort at work, and the latter often demotivate their colleagues with their disillusionment and pessimism.

A survey from the American Management Association found that leaders and their reports diverge on how best to lead, and whether managers can shift when needed. According to a new survey, leaders aren’t in sync with their employees about how their leadership styles are perceived, and leaders also struggle to “flex” across different management styles.
