In You Have More Influence Than You Think (Norton, 2023) social psychologist Vanessa Bohns draws from her original research to illustrate why we fail to recognize the influence we have, and how that lack of awareness can lead us to miss opportunities or accidentally misuse our power. Weaving together compelling stories with cutting edge science, Dr. Bohns answers the questions we all want to know (but may be afraid to ask): How much did she take to heart what I said earlier? Do they know they can push back on my suggestions? Did he notice whether I was there today? Will they agree to help me if I ask? Whether attending a meeting, sharing a post online, or mustering the nerve to ask for a favor, we often assume our actions, input, and requests will be overlooked or rejected. Bohns and her work demonstrate that people see us, listen to us, and agree to do things for us much more than we realize—for better, and worse. You Have More Influence Than You Think offers science-based strategies for observing the effect we have on others, reconsidering our fear of rejection, and even, sometimes, pulling back to use our influence less. It is a call to stop searching for ways to gain influence you don't have and to start recognizing the influence you don't realize you already have. Our guest is: Dr. Vanessa Bohns, who is the Braunstein Family Professor and Chair of Organizational Behavior at Cornell University's ILR School. Professor Bohns holds a PhD in Psychology from Columbia University and an AB from Brown University. Her research has been published in top academic journals in psychology, management, and law, and has been featured in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Atlantic and The Economist, among others. She is the author of You Have More Influence Than You Think. Our host is: Dr. Christina Gessler, who works as a developmental editor. She is the producer and host of the Academic Life podcast.

In informal hiring situations, managers will often devise a shortlist of potential hires. The informality of that shortlist — and the familiarity with candidates — reproduces implicit and systemic bias by its very informality. In short, hiring managers know people who look and think like them, and they are the people who typically get shortlisted and hired. Managers then end up missing out on the best talent available to them.Brian Lucas, an assistant professor of organizational behavior at Cornell's ILR School, finds that when you make your shortlist longer, you reduce the risk of overlooking candidates who may be better suited for the role. In this episode of the Cornell Keynotes podcast, brought to you by eCornell, Lucas joins host Chris Wofford to discuss:The behavioral science approach to workplace dynamicsInformal hiring situations vs. formal recruitmentGender stereotyping and prototypesAdvancement pathway auditsSkills-based hiringReferrals in the hiring processWays to seek out and overcome biasRead more about Brian Lucas's research in Harvard Business Review.Learn more in online human resources certificate programs from eCornell.

You probably know the words “apprentice” and “apprenticeships.” However, what do you really know about the critical role they’ve played in the transfer of skills and capabilities across centuries? In this episode David and Angela explore apprenticeships, when they began, the role they’ve played in human evolution (ever wondered why the Neanderthals died out and modern humans became the dominant life species?), and their critical role in helping individuals learn and develop, organizations thrive and society at large flourish.   In the making of this episode we learned quite a bit ourselves. We were helped in this effort by experts in the field. Thanks to Esta Bigler, Director Labor and Employment Law Program at Cornell University, ILR School.  Esta provided us with a rich overview of apprenticeships specifically in New York State. Esta also generously opened her network to us and introduced us to a number of  the people from whom you’ll hearing in this episode.   Thanks also to Jane Thompson, Director of Apprenticeships for the New York State Department of Labor. Jane helped us understand about registered apprenticeship programs and the New York State’s Department of Labor’s role in working with organizations to help them register and establish certified apprenticeship programs.   We started our recording by talking to Dr. Rudolph Bell, who among his many talents, is a Distinguished Professor at Rutgers University, an expert in Italian civilization and culture from the Middle Ages to the present. We were especially keen to get his insights on apprenticeships as a factor during the European Renaissance. Dr. Rudolph Bell is the author of multiple books including How To Do It: Guides To Good Living For Renaissance Italians.    We spent time talking to Martha Ponge. Martha serves as the Director of Apprenticeship for the Manufacturers Association of Central New York (MACNY) and represents the statewide alliance of manufacturing associations who make up the NYS Manufacturers Intermediary Apprenticeship Program, MIAP.  She was joined by her colleague Laury Ferguson. Laury is the Associate Director of Apprenticeships with MACNY, where she works with manufacturers as well as educational institutions. Both women bring a real passion to their work.   We also spoke with someone who had been through an apprenticeship program and could share her lived experience. Tamara Rivera is a council representative for the New York City District Council of carpenters. In that role Tammy works in the organizing department, which is now called area standards. However, long before this Tammy herself was an apprentice carpenter where she learned her trade.   If you are interested in learning more, here are some sources and resources.   Bait & Switch Intro: The Story of Grandparents - Senior Citizens As The Key To Civilization & The Evolution of Grandparents   Linkage to how we learn, learning from watching others:  Jiro Dreams of Sushi - Documentary Movie How We Learn: The Surprising Truth About When, Where, and Why It Happens -  Manufacturing Industry Producing More With Less People https://www.urban.org/events/policy-matters-reflections-past-and-future-apprenticeship?fbclid=IwAR0sFIJUbdvjI60l4HKYgDKkXMyeJnDp2j_MeyL0cgcFUYGuQsnLka3UuOo   https://www.econtalk.org/robert-lerman-on-apprenticeships/?fbclid=IwAR24Ql9PegTTLadq-x0PwMueFIln8NrIoLOFovzcHcCKK8r00Vsk4CR7z-M   Economist Robert Lerman of the Urban Institute talks about apprenticeships with EconTalk host Russ Roberts.

Colorblind Organizing US unions traditionally operate on a 'colorblind' approach to organizing, but focusing on class issues alone often fails to acknowledge that class is also racially coded. Unions need to combat racial disparities and inequality within its own membership and leadership. Diverse leadership brings lived experience to decision-making and problem-solving that can work against racist and classist discrimination. Union Innovation Innovation in organizing helps better serve union members. 'Whole-union organizing' looks at all the problems facing a union demographic. These may include immigration, police violence, and institutional safety issues, as well as race and pay issues. Working to alleviate these types of problems improves members' lives. Addressing issues of justice, in addition to economics, is key to the future of the labor market and labor movements. New Labor Laws & Equity Creation Current labor laws are 90 years old and need to be updated and reimagined. New laws should strive to create racial and economic equity, as well as social, prison, and climate justice. For example, setting pay-scales by industry can eliminate race and gender discrimination; and loan forgiveness could be based on wealth instead of income, alleviating the burden of student debt for the poor. Find out more: Tamara L. Lee, Esq. is an industrial engineer, labor lawyer, and Rutgers professor. She received her Ph.D. from the department of labor relations, law and history from the ILR School at Cornell University. Her academic research focuses on the popular participation of workers in macro-level political and economic reform in Cuba and the United States. She also conducts research on the political practice of workers under the National Labor Relations Act, the intersection of labor and racial justice, cross-movement solidarity building and the impact of radical adult education on workplace democracy. Her teaching focuses on identity politics in the workplace, and labor market discrimination. You can follow her on Twitter @tamilee2003

Are you having clothing wars? Are you noticing that her body is changing as she hits puberty? Your little girl is starting to get curves. If you notice it, then other people will too. Modesty is not just about what we wear. Modesty is also about teaching our girls that their value comes from the inside out. Once we know our worth is on the inside, then it makes a lot more sense to cover up more of our body parts to help others notice our personhood first, not our body parts.In this episode, join Lisa as she gives all the mamas in the house the reasons WHY modesty is important as well as some practice conversations that you can have with your girl. The Girl Scouts of America notes that 1 in 10 girls is catcalled before her 11th birthday. Surveys conducted by Cornell University’s ILR School and the nonprofit organization Hollaback! reveal nearly 85 percent of American female respondents report facing street harassment before age 17; nearly 70 percent before age 14. Almost 80 percent of women report they were followed by harassers at some point. Catcalls on the street or anywhere are maybe one of the first experiences that girls have of being objectified. It can feel shameful and frightening and you're not even sure why. Girls don’t invite this behavior from men yet they are routinely looked at as being responsible to prevent it. Maddening, right? Wondering what to say, I know I always did! I’ve put together a list of some phrases that might be helpful to you and your daughter. You can download it for free at GirlTribeNation.com/catcalls.Let's help our girls learn why modesty is important and then show them how. Here's to raising Amazing Tween Girls to be smart, healthy, brave, and live with a whole lot more happy in their lives. GirlTribe Nation is here for you moms! We are cheering you on!

He also discusses changes to the provision of consumer credit post-2008 financial crisis and his thoughts on whether lending institutions will change their practices towards gig economy workers. Finally, he discusses ways businesses are engaging marginalized groups as both labor pools and consumers. Louis Hyman is a historian of work and business at the ILR School of Cornell University, where he also directs the Institute for Workplace Studies in New York City. He has published two books on the history of personal debt (Debtor Nation and Borrow) as well as a book about the history of the rise of consultants, temps, freelancers, and day laborers in our businesses (Temp).

“We saw that women didn’t have the confidence to step up, so we were determined to change that for #GenerationEquality so that women of the future and women today have a better shot at being in senior levels roles.” - Denise D’Agostini On March 8th, LiveGirl celebrated International Women's Day (IWD) with the theme: “Generation Equality: Realizing women’s rights for an equal future.” For this year's celebration, Sheri and Olivia sit down with Denise D’Agostini, Co-Founder of Her New Standard, and her daughter, Lauren to talk about the importance of challenging gender norms and empowering each other.  IWD is important because despite some progress, real change has been agonizingly slow for the majority of women and girls in the world. Today, not a single country can claim to have achieved gender equality. Multiple obstacles remain unchanged in law and in culture. And women and girls continue to be undervalued. Check out our conversation where Denise and Lauren share about the inspiration behind Her New Standard, the “playbook” for #nextgen leaders and the top things holding women and teens back.  Lauren is a 16-year-old high schooler, who attends Somers New York High School. Denise has 25 years of experience in Pharma, which includes serving as the Head of HR for both Bayer HealthCare and Ciba Specialty Chemicals. She later co-founded Her New Standard in 2013, stemming from her passion in developing women leaders & igniting confidence so that each individual reaches their greatest potential. Denise’s clients range from Fortune 500 to start-ups. Along with serving as HR Leader and Executive Coach at Her New Standard, Denise is ALSO an adjunct instructor at Cornell University, the ILR School of Human Capital Development.  Join #GenerationEquality. Be the first, the youngest, the best, and make sure no one is left behind. The future we create for women and girls up to all of us.

We tend to think about the "gig economy" as a new development - brought into being by Uber and our smartphones. But Louis Hyman shows us the deep roots of casualized and contract labor, tracing the centrality of temps, day laborers, and consultants from the post-World War II years through the present. Louis Hyman is Associate Professor of History at the ILR School of Cornell University and the Director of the Institute for Workplace Studies in New York City. He is the author of Temp: How American Work, American Business, and the American Dream Became Temporary. He was previously a guest on the first episode of Who Makes Cents.

We talk to Marya Besharov, Assistant Professor of Organizational Behavior at the ILR School at Cornell University about how organisations balance social and financial tensions.

In this episode of Workers Comp Matters, host Alan Pierce talks to Erica Groshen, head of the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, about the trends that characterize the future of the U.S. workforce and how robotics and artificial intelligence will also have an impact on employment. Some of the trends they discuss include the fuzzy definition of what an employee is, a growing gig economy, and independent contractors versus traditional employment. Erica L. Groshen is a visiting senior scholar at the ILR School of Cornell University, and served as the 14th Commissioner of Labor Statistics from January 2013 to January 2017.

Using data from the 1980-2010 time period, Francine Blau provides new empirical evidence on the extent of and trends in the gender wage gap, which declined considerably over this period.  By 2010, conventional human capital variables taken together explained little of the gender wage gap, while gender differences in occupations and industries continued to be important. Moreover, the gender pay gap declined much more slowly at the top of the wage distribution that at the middle or the bottom and, by 2010, was noticeably higher at the top. Francine also uses the literature to identify what has been learned about the explanations for the gap, considering the role of human capital and gender roles, gender differences in occupations and industries, gender differences in psychological attributes, and labor market discrimination against women.
