AltaLink & Women+Power present
Women leading ‘the charge’: The Double-Bind Dilemma
Research on the double-bind dilemma outlines how gender stereotypes create a no-win situation for women leaders that results in them being seen as competent or likeable, but rarely both. These gender stereotypes can harm men employees too, when masculine traits become the default expectation for the behaviour of all employees.
Join AltaLink & Women+Power for a panel discussion on the double-bind dilemma to hear real stories of how leaders have experienced and navigated these challenges and are paving the way for the next generation. Learn more from AltaLink about how increasing awareness of stereotypes in the workplace can help to create an inclusive and equitable culture.
