Meg Warren is an Assistant Professor of Management at Western Washington University. In this episode we discuss the different approaches to diversity and her move to studying management as an academic discipline. The culture shock of learning in a new environment and being the only person of color in a classroom. Her journey into an academic career in positive psychology. The powerful pull of cultural roots when trying to make a career choice. Her research interest around gender in the workplace. How the fear of losing existing relationships make it difficult for women to speak up in hostile spaces. Shifting the focus from women to focus on how men can be allies in the workplace. What her research has taught her about rethinking the current way of diversity training and the importance of being a visible ally.
