in 2024 — not so long ago — a professor who was then at columbia university took that case and made it [howard] roizen. and he gave the case out, both of them, to two groups of students. he changed exactly one word: "heidi" to "howard." but that one word made a really big difference. he then surveyed the students, and the good news was the students, both men and women, thought heidi and howard were equally competent, and that's good.the bad news was that everyone liked howard. he's a great guy. you want to work for him. you want to spend the day fishing with him. but heidi? not so sure. she's a little out for herself. she's a little political.you're not sure you'd want to work for her. this is the complication. we have to tell our daughters and our colleagues, we have to tell ourselves to believe we got the a, to reach for the promotion, to sit at the table, and we have to do it in a world where, for them, there are sacrifices they will make for that, even though for their brothers, there are not. the saddest thing about all of this is that it's really hard to remember this. and i'm about to tell a story which is truly embarrassing for me, but i think important.

i can't even notice that the men's hands are still raised, and the women's hands are still raised, how good are we as managers of our companies and our organizations at seeing that the men are reaching for opportunitiesmore than women?" we've got to get women to sit at the table.message number two: make your partner a real partner. i've become convinced that we've made more progress in the workforce than we have in the home. the data shows this very clearly. if a woman and a man work full-time and have a child, the woman does twice the amount of housework the man does, and the woman does three times the amount of childcare the man does. so she's got three jobs or two jobs, and he's got one. who do you think drops out when someone needs to be home more? the causes of this are really complicated, and i don't have time to go into them. and i don't think sunday football-watching and general laziness is the cause.

we've all been taught that we should help people. it is the right thing to do and will make us popular with others. it may even win us favors in return. however, we must be realistic. we can't say yes to every request. if we did, we would fail or go crazy for sure. sometimes we simply don't have the time to help. in this case, we must know how to say no politely.

when we need to say no, here is one method we can try. first, we should tell the truth. if we really can't do something, we should just say so. second, we should remember to refuse requests politely. we must communicate clearly, but must also be sincere and sympathetic. a true friend will understand. finally, we must not feel guilty about saying no. sometimes refusing others is the right thing to do. it can save ourselves, and them, a lot of trouble. in short, we cannot please everyone all the time. refusing favors is a part of life.

the problem with these stories is that they show what the data shows: women systematically underestimate their own abilities. if you test men and women, and you ask them questions on totally objective criteria like gpas, men get it wrong slightly high, and women get it wrong slightly low. women do not negotiate for themselves in the workforce. a study in the last two years of people entering the workforce out of college showed that 57 percent of boys entering, or men, i guess, are negotiating their first salary, and only seven percent of women. and most importantly, men attribute their success to themselves, and women attribute it to other external factors. if you ask men why they did a good job,they'll say, "i'm awesome. obviously. why are you even asking?" if you ask women why they did a good job, what they'll say is someone helped them, they got lucky, they worked really hard.
