<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:6pt"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:'Palatino Linotype',serif;color:black">Women (and other underrepresented
groups) still struggle in their efforts to rise to leadership positions in
science and engineering. Old ideas blame nature: girls’ brains are wired
differently, so, for example, they are not as good as boys at math. New ideas
shift the blame to nurture - girls face a powerful combination of hidden
obstacles that are part of the society we live in. This talk introduces five
nurture topics that sociologists have been studying for decades but are
rarely discussed by the scientists and engineers whose lives and careers are
most seriously affected by the findings. Studies of Unconscious Bias show
that men and women both unconsciously devalue the contributions of women.
Growth Mindset is the idea that believing in the potential for intellectual
growth, in and of itself, improves outcomes for women and girls. Stereotype
Threat is the anxiety women face in a situation where they have the potential
to confirm a negative stereotype about women as a group. Tests of Spatial
Skills still result in one of the largest and most persistent gender gaps,
where boys consistently outperform girls. Women may also face Impostor
Syndrome where they find it impossible to believe in their own competence.
This talk is not just for women. Everyone who expects to be the best, select
the best, and judge the best needs to understand how these issues skew the
competition and keep us from vying on a level playing field.</span></p>
