I do a lot of speaking, consulting and teaching on DEI-related topics, such as how to overcome hidden biases, how to create cultures that are more inclusive, and how to address the leadership gender gap.

As a gender expert, I spend nearly all my time speaking, teaching and writing on gender-related topics. These topics include the impact of gender on leadership, career advancement, emotional intelligence, biases, gender roles, and gender perceptions.

As speaker, author, consultant, and professor, my expertise centers on the broad topics of leadership, gender, emotional intelligence, hidden bias, and diversity & inclusion.

Why have there been dozens and dozens of men accused of sexual harassment? Why has sexual misconduct continued for decades, despite corporate sexual harassment training and law suits? Why aren’t more men held accountable for their actions?

The U.S. Department of Labor and the Census Bureau have long tracked earnings of men and women. These earnings are broken down in a number of different ways according to race, ethnicity, age, occupation, and educational attainment.

Two years ago, I wrote a blog to address the question, “Which emotional intelligence term is correct?” Today, the confusion in terms is still an issue, so this topic needs revisiting.

Have you ever scratched your head and thought, “Why does he or she do that?” It’s because people do things that make sense to them, but may not make any sense to you. When it comes to gender, there are both hard-wired and socialized differences that show up at work.

Mary Barra, Meg Whitman, Virginia Rometty, Indra Nooyi, Marillyn Hewson, and Safra Catz. What do these women have in common? They are among 26 female CEOs running S&P 500 companies that have crossed the leadership gender gap.
