This book delves into the underlying reasons behind this issue and presents a compelling call to action. Through a meticulous study that included interviews with 70 corporate executives, a survey of 2,000 employees, and extensive desk-research, Dr. Khan uncovers the pernicious impact of gender stereotypes, sexual objectification, and the intricate web of double standards that plague the corporate realm. However, her insights extend beyond mere finger-pointing and victimhood. With a powerful urge for introspection, she exposes an uncomfortable truth: the unintentional contributions that women themselves make to their own oppression. Through compelling storytelling and insightful analysis, Dr. Khan navigates the complex paradox of women inadvertently hindering their own advancement by perpetuating harmful behaviors against each other.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDr. Khan asserts that we are not mere victims, as she unveils the subtle ways in which women internalize and propagate gender biases, unwittingly becoming agents of their own inequality. She courageously delves into the heart of gender dynamics, rejecting simplistic answers and superficial solutions. She empowers women to recognize their role as agents of change, capable of dismantling biases within themselves and their surroundings. This book is not merely about gender; it serves as a testament to the transformative power that can arise when women and men unite, advocating for progress, fostering solidarity, and creating an environment where everyone can thrive.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHer message is clear: true empowerment necessitates acknowledging personal agency while dismantling systemic barriers. Each chapter includes exercises and recommendations for readers to foster working environments where gender equality is celebrated and systemic biases are challenged. By embracing these insights, we can work towards creating a more equitable and inclusive workplace for all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 220g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 214 x 138 x 18 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781292729039\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Parves Khan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":45290115498234,"sku":"9781292729039","price":13.38,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1706892808574_book.jpg?v=1706943571","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-power-of-women-stop-blocking-and-start-empowering-women-at-work-9781292729039","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
