Making all Work Fair with Data-Driven Design

When the U.S. Census Bureau first started tracking data on women-owned businesses in 1962, there were only about 400,000 female business owners in the country. Today, there are more than 13 million women-owned businesses. 

🔑 Top 3 Takeaways 

✅ Why workplace fairness is not just a “nice-to-have” but a business necessity
✅ How small, simple tweaks ( changing résumé formats) can lead to big impacts
✅ Why perceived unfairness fuels workplace anxiety and burnout—and what leaders can do about it

🚀 This week we welcome Siri Chilazi, Senior Researcher at the Harvard Kennedy School and co-author of Make Work Fair: Data-Driven Design for Real Results. Siri's mission is to bring real, measurable fairness to the workplace using the same data-driven approach that businesses use for profits and performance.

🔥 Final Thought: If you want a better workplace, measure what matters—and act on it! 🚀
