WOMEN, MEN, AND THE TIME-CONTROL GAP
This event is open to women and men that are alumni, non-alumni, or students.
Join the DeGroote Women’s Professional Network for our Toronto networking event featuring DeGroote’s Top 40 under 40 business professor Dr. Erin Reid. Dr. Reid will present on her controversial and revealing research on society’s overwork culture and workplace gender perceptions and biases.
Learn what the research says about:
• Gender biases in the workplace
• Overwork culture and the “ideal employee”
• How some 80-hour workweeks are faked –and why it matters
• How women’s time at work is managed differently
• How to make room in your work life for the rest of your self
Afterwards, Dr. Reid will sit down for a provocative Q&A with BNN anchor Catherine Murray. And don’t rush off! Join us afterwards for additional time to network and enjoy dessert.
