60% of male managers now say they're uncomfortable mentoring women (via CNBCMakeIt)
The #MeToo and Time's Up movements have brought huge attention to the challenges women face at work, but a new survey finds that 60% of male managers say they're uncomfortable mentoring, working one-on-one or socializing with a woman.and SurveyMonkey, that's a 33% increase from last year.
Sheryl Sandberg, chief operating officer of Facebook, was once chief of staff for U.S. Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers.LeanIn.org founder and Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg calls the results "totally unacceptable."that the problem with this dynamic is that "women already weren't getting the same mentorship men were, particularly women of color." And in her experience, she says, "no one has ever gotten a promotion without getting a one-on-one meeting.
"The thing is, it's not enough," she says. "It's really important to not harass anyone, but that's pretty basic. We also need to not be ignored."that "sexual harassment is a lot of things, and it's a really complicated issue, but a big piece of it is power dynamics." Both she and Sandberg point out that sexual harassment is twice as likely to occur in organizations where men dominate the C-suite. That's why, Thomas says, it's imperative that men speak up and take action. "My suspicion is that a lot of good guys don't realize that by not actively mentoring, sponsoring or creating full access, that they're inadvertently part of the problem," Thomas says.
