Why Are Women Paid Less?

Are you capable, smart, educated, yet promotions constantly elude you and go to men, even those that are significantly less capable than you? Are you at the same position as your male colleagues, but they have higher salaries and better benefits, for the same work? Are you in a managerial position, but yet not at management board level, not high enough to make strategic decisions?Research confirms that women are, on average, paid less than men for the same work. Gordana FrgaA iA calls this problem by its real name, unlike some that treat it "e;in kid gloves"e;, and gives concrete examples. The book Why are women paid less?"e; reveals, without censorship, prejudices and stereotypes women are subject to at the workplace and elsewhere. All examples are real and happened at real companies, although their identities remain hidden.The author underlines that most women blame others for this problem (usually men), but the reality is that women make a lot of mistakes, sabotage themselves and generate a lot of their own obstacles, deny themselves success and repeat the same mistakes that turn them into bad statistics.Gordana FrgaA iA offers lots of useful advice and recommendations to all employed women that will help them stand up for themselves in the workplace, avoid and correct mistakes in their attitudes and behavior and thereby positively affect their careers.
