#Throwback: Mary Ann Sieghart on the Authority Gap

Published: Nov. 9, 2023, 5:47 a.m.

Our host Verena Hefti MBE is taking a short break from podcast recording this week.

Instead, we revisit one of our most popular episodes featuring former The Times Senior Editor Mary Ann Sieghart.

Mary Ann is the author of a really intriguing book, The Authority Gap, which analyses why women are taken less seriously than men and what we can do about it.

The discussion includes:

  • Why men and women can say the exact same thing yet it\u2019s perceived differently
  • A look at the latest evidence and research around authority and gender
  • What can we all do to deal with this authority gap in day-to-day life
  • How can we change things for future generations

Mary Ann\u2019s book The Authority Gap is available via her website maryannsieghart.com.
