  1. 1. The Authority Gap

    Why Women Are Still Taken Less Seriously Than Men, and What We Can Do About It

    A research-driven examination of how women—despite equal competence and experience—are often perceived as less authoritative than men because of stereotypes, communication norms, and structural workplace practices; it documents the personal and societal costs of this authority gap and analyzes causes such as biased feedback, interruption, language expectations and institutional rules, then offers practical, evidence-based strategies for individuals, managers and organizations to recognize bias, change policies and help women be heard and taken seriously.
