Behavioral economist Iris Bohnet says the key to overcoming gender bias is to focus on organizations and not individuals. She suggests companies adopt strategies like blind auditions and data-driven analysis to prevent unconscious bias from seeping into decision making. Bohnet joins us to talk about her book “What Works: Gender Equality by Design.”

Guests:

Iris Bohnet, professor, Director of Women and Public Policy Program, Harvard Kennedy School; author of "What Works: Gender Equality by Design"
