Episode 97 - Disneyland Reopening w/Special Guest Heather Metcalf

“These women have had networks and support structures and other kinds of community support that helped them get there in spite of an uphill battle….For men, the narrative is that they made it on their own. We downplay the role that mentorship played in (men's) making their way into a leadership role.” Heather Metcalf on Green Connections Radio   “Research has repeatedly demonstrated that diverse teams, especially in leadership, outperform homogenous teams in innovation, research quality, decision-making, and complex thinking and bolster their organization’s financial success,” according to the new research from the Association of Women in Science (AWIS). Yet, the statistics on women in leadership are pathetic, especially in STEM (e.g., only 6.6% of Fortune 500 CEOs are women). Listen to Heather Metcalf, Chief Research officer of AWIS on their new research on practical tips for organizations to have more women in STEM leadership in this engaging conversation with Green Connections Radio host Joan Michelson    You’ll hear: ·      What we can learn from women who made it to the top. ·      Usable suggestions for your organization to diminish the obstacles to women in leadership. ·      How to align your professional development programs to help women advance. ·      How broadening which organizations you partner with matters – and drives innovation. ·      Career advice and, so much more! ·      “Remember what your goals are, what your values are, what you are hoping to achieve,” she insisted, “and to let those guide you to where you need to be. Each person is the one who is the best judge of what they can handle, and what it is they really want to feel satisfied in their careers.” Heather Metcalf on Green Connections Radio You’ll also want to listen to: ·      Kristin Haffert, Mine The Gap diversity training firm, on new research on why women leave jobs before they are promoted. ·      Laura Liswood, Diversity &amp; Inclusion expert, Secretary General of the Council of Women World Leaders ·      Mary Lee Gannon, CEO of a multimillion dollar healthcare foundation and executive coach, on maximizing a multigenerational workforce.  ·      Rainia Washington, VP, Global head of Diversity and Inclusion at Lockheed on innovating with purpose. ·      Go for the Outliers, Read Joan’s Forbes blog on hiring people who don’t “fit in.”   Thanks for subscribing on  Apple Podcasts or iHeartRadio and leaving us a review!

How to Get More Women STEM Leaders  – Heather Metcalf, Assn. of Women in Science

The world is going through a progression, as more and more women and minorities are breaking into all areas of education and business. There is still a long way to go, but this progress is spearheaded by leaders in both areas who make it their passion to help equality become more and more of a reality in our modern times.  Dr. Heather Metcalf is the Chief Research Officer at the Association for Women in Science (AWIS). Metcalf is Project Lead on the STEM to Market and Advanced Resource and Coordination Network initiatives. She has extensive experience leading the empirical intersection between work and gender in the STEM fields.  The social sciences and STEM fields each have their own ways of thinking. Having immersed herself in both computer science and gender studies, which are fields with two traditionally distinct mindsets, Heather had a unique, well-rounded experience that informs her professional life and the initiatives she leads.  Heather completed her postdoctoral research at the University of Arizona where she holds a patent on training materials for effective search and hiring processes. Heather got her PhD in Higher Education - Science and Technology Policy at The University of Arizona, where she also earned her Master’s in Gender and Women’s Studies. In addition, Heather completed an MS in Computer Science at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. What You’ll Hear On This Episode of When Science Speaks [1:02] Introduction to Heather Metcalf, PhD [5:22] Having two different focuses during her education gave Heather a well-rounded approach to both fields [8:13] How the career and experience of Heather’s mom informed her work. [9:37] Advice for those who are the first in their family to attend college, and the challenges that Heather faced as the first in her family to attend [14:52] The First Culture Study Heather implemented in her Master’s degree, and her thoughts on the results [23:28] The STEM to Market initiative Dr. Metcalf is leading   Connect with Karene Richards  Stem to Market Program LinkedIn Association for Women in Science (AWIS) The best of both worlds Many people spend their entire educational and professional careers immersed in either qualitative-based areas or the science and technology fields. During the educational process for quantitative professions in STEM, sometimes communication and non-technical writing skills can end up being undervalued, even if it isn’t intentional. For Dr. Metcalf, those areas did not seem so separate. As she mentions in the interview, endeavors such as writing an argument aren’t so much different from making a proof in mathematics or creating an algorithm. Even more important is the need for scientists to be better at communicating complex and important issues such as climate change to a sometimes skeptical public.  Unconscious bias from investors Becoming an entrepreneur is a difficult endeavor that involves a high amount of risk. For those who have great ideas but find themselves without the capital to bring them to fruition, the task can seem insurmountable. The solution for most startup entrepreneurs is to find investors to help them realize their dream.  As Heather talks about this week, many investors have an inherent bias towards women. More often than ideal, when women are seeking capital, investors tend to ask them questions about risk. Conversely, they tend to ask men questions about promotion. As Heather points out, women receive less than 2% of Venture Capital investing, and women of color receive even less, at one-half percent. That is the goal of the STEM to Market initiative, to help promote STEM women entrepreneurs and cultivate inclusive investors.
