Catalyst, a global nonprofit that helps leading companies and organizations build workplaces that work for women, was founded 60 years ago. Back then, Help Wanted ads in the US were legally separated by gender and race, men were believed to be better suited for leadership roles, and skills considered feminine—like empathy—were regarded as suitable for only supporting positions. Yet Catalyst research demonstrates that our biases are all wrong. In fact, empathy is a vital business skill. Unconscious biases continue to fuel invisible barriers for women today. If you want to push back, we’ve got a job for you. Take on the role of CEO (Chief Empathy Officer) to help us #BiasCorrect over 60 years of unconscious beliefs this International Women’s Day. Join the #BiasCorrect movement at CeoToday.org
