How Women (and Everyone) Can Form Deeper Bonds to Fight Bias at Work
The number of women\u2014especially women of color\u2014in leadership ranks at the world\u2019s largest companies remains desperately small. Tina Opie, associate professor of management at Babson College, offers a new practice for women to lift each other up and fight systemic bias in the workplace, something she calls \u201cshared sisterhood.\u201d The idea is to be more honest with each other, forming truer bonds. That involves listening, understanding yourself, and a willingness to take risks. With University of Iowa management professor Beth Livingston, Opie wrote the new book \u201cShared Sisterhood: How to Take Collective Action for Racial and Gender Equity at Work.\u201d
