Recommendation

The wage gap between men and women persists. Women earn less than men in every profession, even if they have the same level of education and experience as their male peers. Yet, in business, mixed-gender groups and partnerships are much more successful than same-gender groups. Editor and journalist Joanne Lipman urges men to step up and advocate for women. Likewise, women need to do a better job of communicating their professional needs to men. 

Take-Aways

  • Men need to be part of the solution of addressing the wage gap and other gender disparities that women face in the world of work.
  • Many men don’t understand women’s daily lives. Women often don’t communicate what they need at work.
  • Women often understate their accomplishments; men claim theirs proudly.
