educate ourselves and others and put
in place programs to limit bias, such
as in search committees. For more
information on unconscious bias, I
highly recommend the book, “Blind
Spot: Hidden Biases of Good People”
by Banaji and Greenwald 2.
The good news is that traditional
gender roles are changing, bias against
women leaders is decreasing and
everyone wants more women leaders.
Let’s continue to support one another
in our professional lives, and mentor
junior women and students in the
pipeline. Let’s look to our professional
societies for ongoing support and
opportunities. Finally let’s remem-ber
that we are so lucky to be in our
professions; with all its challenges; it is
and will always be a privilege.
