Harvard Business Review Press Fair Share: How Men and Women Can Create a More Equitable Workplace Together GTIN: 9781647826826 Raamatud Leveling the playing fieldat home and at work.The organization is broken. Decades of research show how women struggle to grow in their careers and move up into leadership positions, in part due to demands outside of work.But it's not working for men either. Men want to be equal partners, present parents, and active community members outside of their careers. The "ideal worker" norms of the traditional workplace, though, expect men to be present and available 24/7. This disconnect means that even when men try to take part in flexible work arrangements, they're often stigmatized, leaving women to take up the slack and, again, miss out on professional opportunities.If companies want to reach their full potential and achieve true fairness at work, the workplace must changeand it starts at the top. In this book, gender-in-the-workplace experts W. Brad Johnson and David G. Smith offer a blueprint for how leaders can break down systemic barriers across the organization, from culture to policies, so that men can do more outside of paid workand women can take their place in leadership. They suggest three key areas to focus on:Rethinking company culture and the structure of workGoing all-in on caregiving options and benefits for employeesOperationalizing gender fairness through organizational process and policiesFilled with examples and interviews with both men and women, Fair Share offers a look at what organizations can become when leaders finally break down the obstacles holding everyone back. By working together, men and women can create a better workplace, one where every individual can achieve what they wantat work and at home. Autorid: W. Brad Johnson, David G.

Vintage Publishing The Technological Republic: Hard Power, Soft Belief, and the Future of the West From the Palantir co-founder and The Economist's 'best CEO of 2024,' and his deputy, a sweeping indictment of the West's culture of complacency.ONE OF FINANCIAL TIMES' MOST ANTICIPATED BOOKS OF THE YEAROur most brilliant engineering minds once collaborated with government to advance world-changing technologies. Their efforts secured the West's dominant place in the geopolitical order. But that relationship has now eroded, with perilous repercussions.In this groundbreaking treatise, one of tech's boldest thinkers and his longtime deputy offer a searing critique of our collective abandonment of ambition. Palantir co-founder and CEO Alexander C. Karp and Nicholas W. Zamiska argue that in order for the West to retain its global edge-and preserve the freedoms we take for granted-the software industry must renew its commitment to addressing our most urgent challenges, including the new arms race of artificial intelligence. Government, in turn, must embrace the most effective features of the engineering mindset that have propelled Silicon Valley's success.Above all, leaders must reject intellectual fragility and preserve space for ideological confrontation. A willingness to risk the disapproval of the crowd, Karp and Zamiska contend, has everything to do with technological and economic out-performance.At once iconoclastic and rigorous, this book will also lift the veil on Palantir and its broader political project from the inside, offering a passionate call for the West to wake up to our new reality. | 1 | 33,91 € | Vaata |
