The key to advancing gender equality? Men. Women are at a
disadvantage. At home, they often face an unequal division of
household chores and childcare, and in the workplace, they deal
with lower pay, lack of credit for their contributions, roadblocks
to promotion, sexual harassment, and more. And while organizations
are looking to address these issues, too many gender-inclusion
initiatives focus on how women themselves should respond,
reinforcing the perception that these are "women's issues" and that
men—often the most influential stakeholders in an
organization—don't need to be involved.
Gender-in-the-workplace experts David G. Smith and W. Brad Johnson
counter this perception. In this important book, they show that men
have a crucial role to play in promoting gender equality at work.
Research shows that when men are deliberately engaged in
gender-inclusion programs, 96 percent of women in those
organizations perceive real progress in gender equality, compared
with only 30 percent of women in organizations without strong male
engagement. Good Guys is the first practical, research-based guide
for how to be a male ally to women in the workplace. Filled with
firsthand accounts from both men and women, and tips for getting
started, the book shows how men can partner with their female
colleagues to advance women's leadership and equality by breaking
ingrained gender stereotypes, overcoming unconscious biases,
developing and supporting the talented women around them, and
creating productive and respectful working relationships with
women.
