Sometimes you read a book and get a flash of insight - that “ah ha!” moment - about yourself and the ways you interact with others.  That happened to me when reading “Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World.”  It helped me to understand and justify my interest in (this won't surprise you) EVERYTHING related to geriatrics or palliative care.  Also hat tip to Matthew Growdon for recommending the book. Today we talk with Bob Arnold, who has a long list of recommendations for books that have the potential to generate an “ah ha!” moment.  The podcast is ostensibly focused on becoming a better mentor, but as you'll hear, we discuss techniques that can help you cope with anxiety, stress, your spouse…the list goes on.  In reality, insights from these books can help you be a better teacher, a more curious person, as well as a better mentor or mentee. Bob urges you to buy these books from your local bookstore.  To that end, we're not including links with the titles below.  Please shop locally. As a bonus, Lauren Hunt, frequent guest on GeriPal, heard we recorded this podcast and wanted to add a couple books to Bob's list (she saw Bob give a talk about these books at the NPCRC Foley retreat).  Her list will strongly resonate with women in academics. See below for Lauren's two additions to Bob's list, with her personal commentary.

I had heard of course heard of imposter syndrome in the past but I didn't make the connection to myself until I read this article and saw my thoughts printed on the page. You would think that after several years of a number of career successes, the imposter syndrome would have abated for me, but rather I found it getting worse! I thought that I should know more of what I was doing by this point in my career, but instead I often felt like I had no idea what I was doing!  So I came across this book and found it very helpful. Young defines people who have imposter syndrome as those who have a “persistent belief in their lack of intelligence, skills, or competence. They are convinced that other people's praise and recognition of their accomplishments is undeserved, chalking up their achievements to chance, charm, connections, and external factors. Unable to internalize or feel deserving of their success, they continually doubt their ability to repeat past successes.”  I certainly related to the point that instead of successes alleviating feelings of fraudulence, the opposite happens, because it increases pressures to uphold one's reputation. The pressures can be intense, leaving one wondering if it's all worth it, and prompting fantasies of leaving the charade behind.  One thing I really liked about this book is that it places the imposter syndrome into the context of a patriarchal, misogynistic, racist society and organizations that create cultures that cultivate self-doubt (ahem academia). Imposter syndrome is a rationale response to a crazy world. We exist in a society and culture that actually judges women to be less competent at work (the studies she details are SUPER disturbing). It is not surprising we would internalize these norms. Also that being underrepresented in a field creates pressures not only to represent just oneself, but an entire gender.  She focuses on women, but these concepts obviously apply to people of color and other disadvantaged social groups. And of course men can have imposter syndrome too.  Another part I liked about the book is digging into the notion that one's success is due to luck, or being in the right place at the right time. She dispels these notions by pointing out that, first of all, luck is always present, even for people who are enormously talented and second, being the right place at the right time, having the right connections, and having a winning personality can sometimes actually be the result of skills or abilities, often the result of hard-work, hustling, and efforts to develop one's socioemotional capacity.   This is a self-help book, so throughout she offers some useful rules and self-talk for responding to imposter syndrome thoughts. She details different ways to respond to thoughts based on your competence type. For example, if you are a perfectionist, she recommends reframing to a “good enough” quality standard—a mantra I adopted from colleague during the pandemic and has been incredibly helpful for me over the past few years. For the rugged individualist who equate true competence equals solo, unaided achievement, the reframe is “competence means knowing how to identify the resources needed to get the job done.”  Another really important idea she raises is that women often have difficult choices to make about their career and its impact on other parts of their families and their other social networks that aren't as pronounced for men in our society. Sometimes it is difficult to disentangle these questions from feelings of imposter syndrome. For example, is reluctance to take on more responsibility at work or relocate because you feel inadequate or is it because of genuine concern about the impact on your family? Moreover, women (generalizing here) tend to place lower value on traditional measures of work success (e.g. money, power, influence) and greater value on connection and meaning. It can require a lot of soul searching to figure out whether one is avoiding career “success” out of fear or that certain paths are just truly not aligned with our values.   Finally, towards the end of the book, she introduces the idea of “faking it till you make it” and having chutzpah—i.e going for it. Of course, she's not advocating for a George Santos approach (no lying) but just having a little bit more of a mindset that you'll figure it out once you're on the job.  I'd definitely recommend this book if you've ever struggled with similar feelings or mentor people who might. She's got a breezy and relatable writing style that's easy to read, lots of great real-world stories, and piquant quotes.   The No Club:  Putting a Stop to Women's Dead-End Work by Linda Babcock, Brenda Peyser, Lise Vesterlund, and Laurie Weingart  Summary of the book's premise:  Work activities fall on a spectrum from promotable and non-promotable (NPT).  Promotable activities are those that advance one's career. They use the word “advance” quite broadly to encompass various outcomes, like earning a promotion, getting plum assignments, increasing compensation, and enhancing marketability for other jobs. Promotable tasks are visible to others and increase the organization's currency. Some tasks may be indirectly promotable—they help you develop skills that have the potential to enhance your future success or access to future promotable work.  NPT's are important to your organization but will not help to advance your career. These tasks have low visibility (think committees and other service).  Too many NPT's can lead to work/work imbalance where promotable tasks get pushed to the side and advancement slows, or work-life imbalance, where advancement continues but at the expense of time in one's personal life (or both).  Although not exclusively a problem for women, women are more likely to take on NPT's at work. This is because they are both asked more often and are more likely to say yes when asked.  They propose both bottom-up (women saying no to more things) and top-down solutions (organizations making efforts to divide up NPT's more fairly and ensuring everyone is pitching in).  Before I read this book, I didn't fully grasp the idea that an activity would be helpful to the organization but not to my own career. Sometimes requests for participation in these activities come with a veneer or prestige and lots of feel-good gratitude. I personally feel a lot of guilt and worry about disappointing people when I say no to things. Even declining to review an article for a journal is accompanied by some stomach knots (it's so hard to find reviewers!) I also place a lot of value in collaboration and working in teams, and the idea of working in a culture where everyone is only looking out for themselves is not appealing to me.  But I'm also worried at the level of overwhelm I experience at times and perhaps some of you have experienced as well. How do we ensure that we are on sustainable path where we can stay in and build the world we want to live and work in?   The book also got me thinking about what is promotable or not in academia, i.e. what is the currency. I think we all know that grants and publications are promotable activities, but even within that there are hierarchies. Some of these hierarchies I think I understand: a data-based paper in a high-impact journal has higher promotability than an editorial in a lower-impact journal. Some of them I'm not sure about: is an NIH project grant more promotable than a foundation grant and if so why (bc higher indirects?)  Also, things like mentorship seem gray to me: senior-authored articles are evidence of independence and potential track to mentoring awards, but people often seem to place mentorship in the NPT category. I think having more transparency and discussion about what is promotable or not would be very useful.    Highly recommend this book for women, men, people in leadership, and employees. It's extremely well-written, nuanced, and eye-opening.   SPONSOR:    This episode of the GeriPal Podcast is sponsored by UCSF's Division of Palliative Medicine, an amazing group doing world class palliative care.  They are looking for physician faculty to join them in the inpatient and outpatient setting.  To learn more about job opportunities, please click here: https://palliativemedicine.ucsf.edu/job-openings  

One of the ways we find our groove is through knowledge – sometimes new ideas, sometimes repeated ideas that are presented in new ways. Sometimes, it's just reminders of old ideas that deserve a new look. And we love the fresh ideas that we've read about this year in the very notable Behavioral Science books of 2022. Kurt and Tim sit down, in this episode, to discuss the highlights of the books they've read in 2022. To save you some time, they have compiled a summary of why they liked each book, and what you can expect to get from reading it. We'd love to hear about your favorite books of the year.

In this episode, we get into non-promotable tasks, from serving on committees to onboarding new hires and the classic 'office mom' jobs such as planning the company holiday party. These thankless extra tasks add up over time—women are doing 200 hours of them! And they're holding us back from reaching our true potential at work. So, how can we learn to decline tasks that don't serve our careers, and challenge outdated systems that are getting in the way of getting promoted? Tune in to find out.

Bonjour ! Le podcast Nouveau Départ de cette semaine a été réalisé en partenariat avec Les Équilibristes. Il s'agit du deuxième épisode de notre série de podcasts intitulée Places à prendre. Céline Alix, Sandra Fillaudeau et moi discutons à trois voix du sujet de la place des femmes ! Dans cet épisode, intitulé “Nice Girl au travail”, nous nous penchons sur le travail invisible des femmes et le modèle alternatif de leadership qu'offrent la nice girl.Au travail, nos attentes sont plus fortes vis-à-vis des femmes. Du coup, en plus de leur mission principale, nous assurons en moyen beaucoup plus de travail invisible au service du collectif. Mais plutôt que d'inviter les “nice girls” du travail à s'endurcir et à en faire moins, ne devrions-nous pas les ériger en modèle pour tous/toutes ? Et si les “nice girls” offraient en fait le meilleur modèle de leadership ?Dans ce deuxième épisode, nous discutons de nos lectures et réflexions personnelles à propos des inégalités invisibles du travail, des attentes culturelles et des façons dont elles façonnent nos comportements, du modèle de leadership dominant et ce par quoi on pourrait le remplacer… Je parle en particulier d'une lecture qui a fait forte impression sur moi, The No-Club, livre que j'évoque également dans ce récent article : Travail « ingrat » : pourquoi doit-il devenir l'affaire de toute votre équipe (Welcome to the Jungle)On a tous entendu parler du déséquilibre entre travail et vie privée qui met à mal notre santé mentale. Mais connaissez-vous le déséquilibre travail/travail ? Il se produit quand le/la salarié·e fait face à une surcharge de travail peu gratifiant et ne dispose plus de suffisamment de temps pour faire son « vrai » travail. Autrement dit, ce pourquoi il/elle a été recruté·e dans l'équipe. Ces tâches qui s'ajoutent peuvent être plaisantes ou déplaisantes. Mais elles ont en commun de ne pas contribuer à faire avancer les objectifs sur lesquels les personnes concernées sont évaluées. Ce déséquilibre travail/travail est souvent plus prononcé pour les femmes, contribuant ainsi aux inégalités de genre et à démotiver les salarié·es concerné·es.Ce podcast est disponible à la fois sur Nouveau Départ et Les Équilibristes.Bonne écoute !Les ressources mentionnées dans l'épisode The No Club: Putting a Stop to Women's Dead-End Work de Linda Babcock, Brenda Peyser, Lise Vesterlund et Laurie WeingartThe Myth Of The Nice Girl: Achieving a Career You Love Without Becoming a Person You Hate de Fran HauserStrong Female Lead: Rethinking Leadership in a World Gone Wrong de Arwa MahdawiImpunité de Hélène DevynckDes hommes justes.

Lise Vesterlund's research has uncovered that organizations are wasting precious skills and knowledge by assigning a disproportionate amount of non-promotable work to women. For women, this leads to working longer hours leading to burnout, stress, and disengagement. Are you underutilizing the skills and knowledge of the women in your organization? Listen now as host Jeff Tetz talks with Lise Vesterlund about Putting a Stop to Women's Dead End Work.

If you've ever found yourself reluctantly raising your hand to volunteer for yet another thankless task, do not miss this episode. Professor Lise Vesterlund stops by to talk about her new, co-authored book The No Club: Putting a Stop to Women's Dead End Work. Lise and her coauthors show how women are systematically asked and expected to take on tasks that go unrewarded, and offer simple strategies to say no with grace.

One of the four thieves of productivity is the inability to say ‘no.'Whether it's a deeply-rooted habit, a desire to avoid disappointing others, or the (often false) belief that saying ‘yes' will make you look good as an employee, this is a trap that is too easy to fall for. But saying ‘yes' to too many things can easily push out your own priorities.Linda Babcock and Brenda Peyser are the authors of “The No Club: Putting a Stop to Women's Dead-End Work.” They are going to share how everyone, women in particular, can get comfortable with saying ‘no' to the work that doesn't push their career forward while still ensuring that important work gets done.If you want to sharpen the skill of saying ‘no,' visit thenoclub.com where you can purchase the book, learn to start your own club, and more.To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/pods.We talk about:What inspired The No ClubExamples of non-promotable workGetting comfortable saying ‘no' (even when it's scary)Finding support and accountability for saying ‘no'Creating delegation win-winsHow organizations can operate equitablyLinks & Tools from This EpisodeLearn more at thenoclub.comRead: The No ClubFollow on Twitter: @thenoclubFollow in Instagram: @thenoclubFree ResourcesWant to be a guest or share feedback?

Why do we find it so difficult to stop doing things that we know are bad for us? Whether it's mindlessly browsing social media instead of working, reaching for that next piece of chocolate even though you said that you'd had enough for today, or cancelling yoga again because something's come up at work, we're all guilty of doing things that aren't in our best interest. But it doesn't have to be that…This week's episode of the Oh For Food's Sake Podcast is a little different as we're introducing our brand new book club! We've both read Atomic Habits by James Clear, who details his method of building good habits in a sustainable way whilst gradually removing bad habits. In a word, we loved it!

Today I sit down with behavioral economist, professor and author, Linda Babcock to discuss the power of saying no for women at work.  This podcast interview is for any woman in the workplace who feels stretched thin, frustrated by a lack of advancement in their career and afraid to say no. If you are an organizational leader, this podcast will help you understand how to strategically use your greatest resource by shifting how you allocate and reward non-promotical tasks.  We discuss what an NPT or non-promotable task is, and why women are 50% more likely to volunteer for work that doesn't advance their career. Linda and her co-authors propose tactical and strategic ways we can empower women in all positions to advocate for their needs by doing an inventory of how they spend their time, understanding the currency their company thrives on and embracing strategies to make sure they spend their time doing work that aligns with their skills and also helps advance their role in the workplace.  Linda's work is focused on understanding barriers to women's advancement in the workplace and developing evidence-based interventions to promote a level playing field. She is the founder and director of the Program for Research and Outreach on Gender Equity in Society (PROGRESS), which pursues positive social change for women and girls through education, partnerships, and research. Linda is the James M. Walton Professor in Economics at Carnegie Mellon University and the author of Ask for It: How Women Can Use the Power of Negotiation to Get What They Really Want and Women Don't Ask: Negotiation and the Gender Divide. “The No Club: Putting a Stop to Women's Dead End Work” is available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble and wherever books are sold. To learn more, visit https://www.thenoclub.com In this episode, you will learn:  What impacts the bottom line is business is how we spend out time  Why companies would benefit from developing their people and the core soft skills What a non-promotable task (NPT) is and how it drains a woman's capacity to advance her career  Helpful tactics to understand how to say no, or even say “yes, and…” The power of the pause before making decisions How not staying in our zone of genius or even competencies is an energy drain for the employee and the organization 70% of companies believe that DEI initiatives are critical to business success but only 24% of companies formally recognized DEI initiatives as promotable  How female leaders can become more aware and strategic about how they handle personal decisions  How leaders can begin to pay attention to what a “Yes” feels like and how that is the foundation for being more responsible with human resources and time.  How understanding non-promotable tasks and doing an inventory of how we spend out time is very visible and further supports our capacity to direct career advancement.  How real change happens when organizations shift how they allocate and reward work  ________________ Elisa Haggarty is a Conscious Leadership Coach and host of The School of Unlearning Podcast.

Women are more likely to volunteer for a non-promotable task at work, than men. But why do women volunteer themselves more? What repercussions does this have on women and on the organization? And how can workplaces fix this inequity?   Non promotable tasks (NPTs) are the pieces of work that are good for the organization, but not so good for the individual. It's the request from your boss to organize the holiday party, or the task of ordering sandwiches for the team lunch, or the mission of being on the review committee. And the problem, says Linda and her co-authors, is that women are doing the vast majority of these non-promotable tasks for no reason other than people expect them to.   Linda Babcock is a longtime friend of the show, having first appeared on Behavioral Grooves Podcast back in April 2019 to talk about promoting the careers of women in the workplace. Since then, Linda has co-authored a fantastic new book advocating further for women in the workplace; “The No Club: Putting a Stop to Women's Dead-End Work”. Having formed “The No Club” with a group of other women, in an effort to regain balance in their workload, Linda and her fellow group members have written about their personal experience of learning to say NO to NPTs.    Make no mistake, Linda's book is not a guide for women, it is a guide for anyone who works with or knows women! Weaving practical tips into ever chapter of the book, Linda and her co-authors outline clear steps in how to avoid and fix the problem of workload inequity. And the benefits aren't limited to women either - organizations can improve their productivity and profitability as a result of addressing these problems.   In this episode with Linda we relish the opportunity to discuss with her the practical ways women, men and organizations can rebalance the workload of NPTs.

This week I had the privilege of speaking with Lise Vesterlund about a new book she helped co-author, The No Club: Putting a Stop to Women's Dead-End Work. In this conversation, Lise helps listeners better understand the enormous disparities when it comes to "non-promotable" work tasks that are disproportionally assigned to women in the workplace. We talk about the root causes of this practice while addressing some of the systematic, cultural, and historical business practices that need to be reformed in order to create workplaces with greater equity and shared non-promotable tasks. In addition Lise shares some of the insights she has gleaned after forming a "No Club" with her fellow female faculty at The University of Pittsburg that aims to create a space for women to both share their experiences and promote accountability in saying no to dead-end work. Lise Vesterlund is a behavioral economist whose highly influential work shows how gender differences in competition, confidence, and expectations contribute to the persistent gender gap in advancement. She is one of the authors of the new book: 'The No Club: Putting a Stop to Women's Dead-End Work (https://amzn.to/3txpytl)'.

Lise Vesterlund is a Professor of Economics and author of "The No Club: Putting a Stop to Women's Dead End Work." She describes her research that found women tend to work 200 more hours/year than men on "non-promotable work," and suggests ways to even the burden so men and women have similar opportunities for advancement.
