Harvard Business Review weighs in on transgender workplace issues |
|
Dr. Jillian T. Weiss has some news about Harvard Business Review (HBR). She notes:
First, HBR’s blog is posting my brief discussion of the recent study by Schilt and Wiswall on the gender wage gap, using data about transgender workplace experiences, published in the Journal of Economic Analysis and Policy (recently discussed in Time Magazine and the New York Times blog). You can read the blog post and comments at blogs.harvardbusiness.org.
Bilerico editor Alex Blaze recently weighed in on the Schilt and Wiswall study with some incisive analysis. (There are also some good posts on Workplace Prof Blog, Examiner.com, and FairerScience.org
Second, HBR is publishing a case study in its December edition that will look at a hypothetical situation involving a transgender employee who is transitioning on the job. The case was written by Loren Gary of Harvard’s John F. Kennedy School of Government and Brian Elliot. I was pleased to be able to assist in preparing the case. There are three commentators, all from high-profile companies (Raytheon, Prudential and Boeing), who have addressed issues of transition in the workplace. A link to the abbreviated interactive version of the Harvard Business Review case is available .
