283: Making Workplace Flexibility Work for Women with Dr. Kaumudi Misra

On the Well Woman Show today, I interview Dr. Kaumudi (kah-moody) Misra, Professor at California State University East Bay’s College of Business and Economics. We talk about the role of strategic human resource management practices for employee and organizational productivity and work-life flexibility practices as a strategic HR tool.

On the show we’ll discuss:

  • The key factor missing for workplace flexibility policies to work for women
  • Dr. Misra’s focus on equity in HR
  • The future of flexibility at work
  • and How core values and contextual factors impact workplace flexibility.

The book she recommended was: The Road to Character by David Brooks
