On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Much current theory and debate about the slow pace of women’s ascent to the top levels of economic organisations has ignored the identity processes involved in coming to see oneself, and be seen by others, as a leader. In this lecture, Herminia will argue that subtle, often invisible forms of gender bias – stemming from workplace structures, cultures, and patterns of interaction that unintentionally exclude women – shape, and often interfere with, the identity work involved in becoming a leader. The crucial task of internalizing a leader identity is fraught from the outset for women, who must establish credibility in settings where they are underrepresented numerically and implicit models of effective leadership who are male-typed.
