Machiavelli for Women and Winning the Workplace with Stacey Vanek Smith

There's no denying the gender pay gap. Since 2000, the gender pay gap has held steady at about 20% despite all strides towards equality. Is the glass ceiling still holding strong? This week, host Elisa is joined by Stacey Vanek Smith, co-host of NPR's The Indicator from Planet Money, and author of Machiavelli for Women. Stacey brings with her a wealth of data and workplace knowledge, from how to get your opinions heard in a meeting to navigating the most complex of power dynamics. How are women perceived differently than men? And through a national security lens, how critical is it to have diverse voices at the forefront of decision making?
