Some people didn’t want us to make this episode. But we did.
Jeaneth Johansson shares the science behind unconscious gender bias with facts from her study on VC’s evaluations of male vs. female entrepreneurs, published in the Harvard Business Review this spring.
Startup veterans, editors of the co-pour and CEO-coaches Melissa and Johnathan Nightingale talk about the #metoo effect and its potential backlash. A bunch of random people at tech events answer the question “Do we need this episode?” and Christine has a painful realization.
