This week, Gemma sits down with Dr. David G. Smith and Dr. W. Brad Johnson to discuss the power of male allyship at work, and their book, Good Guys: How Men Can Be Better Allies for Women in the Workplace (Harvard Business Review Press, 2020).
Dr. Smith is an Associate Professor at the Johns Hopkins Carey Business School and a former Navy pilot whose research focuses on gender, work, and family. Dr. Johnson is a clinical psychologist and Professor of Psychology at the US Naval Academy, and a Faculty Associate in the Graduate School of Education at Johns Hopkins University.
In this episode of Have You Had This Conversation, we explore the numerous benefits of male allyship, mentorship, and inclusive leadership - both for men, women, and the organizations they work for. We unpack topics like the “bro code” and unconscious bias, and outline practical steps like setting equity goals and publishing progress, building a network of allies and sponsors, taking a first step, handling resistance, and becoming a true 21st-century leader.
