The club teaching women to say 'no' at work
Ever heard of the term non-promotable task? Well, if you\u2019re a woman, the chances are you\u2019ve been doing a lot of them at work.
Leanna Byrne speaks to the authors of The No Club, a book tracking the problems that arise when women are tasked with doing mindless jobs. We are talking about the kind of jobs that make managers happy, but won\u2019t help you get on in your career.
Linda Babcock, Brenda Peyser, Lise Vesterlund, and Laurie Weingart\u2014the original \u201cNo Club\u201d\u2014 join us to talk through why women are disproportionately asked and expected to take on these tasks, why that leaves women overcommitted and underutilised and how companies are therefore forfeiting revenue, productivity, and top talent.
