Episode 16 - Mothers in the Workplace — Making the Case for Change with Dr. Amelia Reigstad
This episode of the The Business Conversation Podcast features Dr. Amelia Reigstad, Founder of The Women Empowerment Series which encourages and inspires women to use their voice for change.
Amelia shares the findings of her 7 year doctoral studies which proves there is inequality between men and women in the workplace. One of the findings was that women are expected to perform at their best as mothers and as professionals but are not sufficiently supported by the system.
This is most apparent in pay gaps and the prevalence of the Queen Bee Syndrome which pits women against women for fear of losing hard-fought ground.
For Amelia, change begins when effective two-way communication is deployed to recognize the true advantages of an equal workplace. Active listening is needed and women and their allies need to have a strong unified voice to move the conversation forward.
