Why Do So Many Incompetent Men Become Leaders?Why are so few women in management positions? The popular explanations range from women just aren’t capable of being leaders to women just don’t want to be leaders. According to the author, however, the absence of women in leadership roles has less to do with women themselves and more to do with how we interpret leadership traits. Confidence – a trait more associated with men – is often misinterpreted as competence. As a result, charismatic, but incompetent men have fewer barriers to reach the top than women. Individuals in positions to promote and hire managers should think more critically about what seems like a leadership trait versus what is an actual leadership trait. They will find that arrogance and overconfidence – the characteristics that get men into management positions – are also the characteristics that cause poor performance.

Rethink What You “Know” About High-Achieving WomenOn the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the admission of women to Harvard Business School’s MBA program, the authors, who have spent more than 20 years studying professional women, set out to learn what HBS graduates had to say about work and family and how their experiences, attitudes, and decisions might shed light on prevailing controversies. What their comprehensive survey revealed suggests that the conventional wisdom about women’s careers doesn’t always square with reality. The survey showed, for instance, that: The highly educated, ambitious women and men of HBS don’t differ much in terms of what they value and hope for in their lives and careers. It simply isn’t true that a large proportion of HBS alumnae have “opted out” to care for children. Going part-time or taking a career break to care for children doesn’t explain the gender gap in senior management. The vast majority of women anticipated that their careers would rank equally with those of their partners. Many of them were disappointed. It is now time, the authors write, for companies to consider how they can institutionalize a level playing field for all employees, including caregivers of both genders. The misguided assumption that high-potential women are “riskier” hires than their male peers because they are apt to discard their careers after parenthood has become yet another bias for women to contend with.

Ukrainian Women on the Front LinesAfter Russia’s unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, war crimes and crimes against humanity fill the news, political dialogue seems hopeless and 7 million refugees—approximately 90 percent or more of whom are women and children—have fled across the borders into Europe. Still, resistance blossoms in Ukraine from a generation that’s enjoyed relative freedom and democracy. The miscalculation of Vladimir Putin, who seems to have assumed Ukrainians would welcome his armed attack, has led to more unity, a refusal to surrender the independence now permeating their national consciousness. Ordinary people, some women—making up an estimated 15 percent of Ukraine’s army—as well as men,
