Synergist x The No Club: How to Stop Doing Non-Promotable Work and Take Control of Your Career

Join Synergist for a virtual conversation with Linda Babcock, Carnegie Mellon professor and bestselling author of Women Don't Ask and The No Club: Putting a Stop to Women's Dead-End Work, on how to recognize and push back on the work that quietly stalls careers.

You know the pattern. You are the one who plans the team offsite, organizes recruiting, sits on the committees, and trains the new analyst. None of it shows up in your year-end review, and yet somehow your plate keeps getting fuller. Linda has spent her career documenting why women take on disproportionately more "non-promotable work," and more importantly, what to do about it.

We will cover how to spot non-promotable work in real time, how to say no without burning bridges, what to do when no is not an option, and how to make the business case for change at your firm.

Linda will be interviewed by Synergist LA members Nicole Hagen (Angeleno Group) and Sarah Anania (Clearlake).

Event Date & Time Tuesday, May 19th 12:30-1:30pm PT Virtual

The first 25-50 registrants will receive a complimentary copy of The No Club
