‘And then I saw it. And once I had seen it, I saw it everywhere.
Why are men still winning at work?
If women have equal leadership ability, why are they so under-represented at the top in business and society?
Why are we still living in a man’s world? And why do we accept it?
In this provocative book, Gill Whitty-Collins looks beyond the facts and figures on gender bias and uncovers the invisible discrimination that continues to sabotage us in the workplace and limits our shared success. Addressing both men and women and pulling no punches, she sets out the psychology of gender diversity from the perspective of real personal experience and shares her powerful insights on how to tackle gender equality.
