SUMMARY:[FAN] Unshrinking: How to Face Fatphobia Kate Manne\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, January 11\, 2024\, 7:00 PM\, Unshrinking: How to Face Fatphobia\, a FAN webinar featuring\nKaye Manne\, Ph.D.\, in conversation with Roxane Gay\, Ph.D. \nREGISTER: www.bit.ly/ManneFANWebinar\n \nBONUS AFTER-HOURS EVENT: Attendees who purchase a copy of Unshrinking from FAN’s partner\nbookseller The Book Stall are invited to attend an AFTER-HOURS event hosted by Manne that will start\nimmediately after the webinar. Details on the webinar registration page. \nIn her latest book Unshrinking: How to Face Fatphobia\, Kate Manne\, Ph.D.\, an associate professor of\nphilosophy at Cornell University\, delivers a definitive takedown of fatphobia\, drawing on personal\nexperience as well as rigorous research to expose how size discrimination harms everyone\, and how to\ncombat it. \nBlending intimate stories with the trenchant analysis that has become her signature\, Manne shows why\nfatphobia has become a vital social justice issue. She examines how anti-fatness operates—how it leads us\nto make devastating assumptions about a person’s attractiveness\, fortitude\, and intellect\, and how it\nintersects with other systems of oppression. Fatphobia is responsible for wage gaps\, medical neglect\, and\npoor educational outcomes; it is a straitjacket\, restricting our freedom\, our movement\, our potential. \nIn this urgent call to action\, Manne proposes a new politics of “body reflexivity”—a radical reevaluation of\nwho our bodies exist in the world for: ourselves and no one else. When it comes to fatphobia\, the solution\nis not to love our bodies more. Instead\, we must dismantle the forces that control and constrain us and\nremake the world to accommodate people of every size. \nManne will be in conversation with Roxane Gay\, Ph.D. a contributing opinion writer for the New York Times\nand the acclaimed bestselling author of Bad Feminist\, Difficult Women\, and Hunger. Gay is also the author\nof World of Wakanda for Marvel. She has a newsletter\, The Audacity\, and once had a podcast\, The Roxane\nGay Agenda. \nThis event suitable for youth 12+. It will be recorded and available on FAN’s website and YouTube channel.

SUMMARY:[FAN] Tightwads and Spendthrifts: Navigating the Money Minefield in Real Relationships Scott Rick\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, January 16\, 2024\, 7:00 PM\, Tightwads and Spendthrifts: Navigating the Money Minefield in Real Relationships\, a FAN webinar featuring Scott Rick\, Ph.D.\, in conversation with Olga Khazan. \nREGISTER: www.bit.ly/RickFANWebinar\n \nBONUS AFTER-HOURS EVENT: Attendees who purchase a copy of Tightwads and Spendthrifts from FAN’s partner bookseller The Book Stall are invited to attend an AFTER-HOURS event hosted by Rick and Khazan that will start immediately after the webinar. Details on the webinar registration page. \nHave you ever asked yourself “What if I’m a tightwad and my significant other is a spendthrift?” or vice versa? Scott Rick\, Ph.D.\, a behavioral scientist and associate professor of marketing at the University of Michigan’s Ross School of Business\, knows that many people do. He also knows that the financial aspects of an intimate relationship can become a money minefield if couples try to navigate it without first discussing all of the financial issues between them\, especially if those two people have different approaches to spending. \nTightwads and Spendthrifts: Navigating the Money Minefield in Real Relationships is a science-based guide to understanding and transforming how we manage money\, both on our own and in relationships. Building on his original research\, and surveying a vast body of interdisciplinary work\, Tightwads and Spendthrifts will help you understand your own financial psychology and how it plays out in your relationships. Can tightwads and spendthrifts live together in harmony? Rick says “yes\,” but not without first asking hard questions about whose opinion should count most when making a financial decision. Once the issues have been aired\, he tells readers how to create a game plan for navigating financial decision making that both tightwads and spendthrifts can rely on for a happy life together. \nRick will be in conversation with Olga Khazan\, a staff writer for The Atlantic who is working on a book about personality change. Her first book\, Weird: The Power of Being an Outsider in an Insider World\, came out in 2020. \nThis event suitable for youth 12+. It will be recorded and available on FAN’s website and YouTube channel.

SUMMARY:[FAN] The Mirrored Door: What Blocks Women's Careers Ellen Connelly Taaffe
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, January 23\, 2024\, 7:00 PM\, The Mirrored Door: What Blocks Women’s Careers\, a FAN webinar featuring Ellen Taaffe\, in conversation with Deepa Purushothaman. \nREGISTER: www.bit.ly/TaaffeFANWebinar \nBONUS AFTER-HOURS EVENT: Attendees who purchase a copy of The Mirrored Door from FAN’s partner bookseller The Book Stall are invited to attend an AFTER-HOURS event hosted by Taaffe that will start immediately after the webinar. Details on the webinar registration page. \nAt some point in their careers\, many women encounter the “mirrored door” ― the place where\, when presented with opportunities\, they reflect inward and hesitate\, deem they’re not ready or worthy enough to move forward\, whether that is to raise their hands or go for the next role. But there is a way to overcome the gendered expectations that girls and women internalize over our lifetimes that create a hidden barrier that keeps them from reaching their full potential. \nIn her new book The Mirrored Door: Break Through the Hidden Barrier that Locks Successful Women in Place\, Ellen Connelly Taaffe\, clinical associate professor at Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management\, draws on research\, stories from her own career\, and those of her students and the mid-late career women she has coached. She explains why the five perils of success ― preparing to perfection\, being eager to please\, trying to fit the mold\, pushing too hard\, and patiently performing and expecting rewards to follow ― get women to a certain level\, and then may prevent them taking the next step in their careers as expectations rise. She offers a new\, empowering framework for navigating the challenges of the workplace with more awareness and expertise. \nTaaffe is the director of Women’s Leadership Programming at Kellogg and serves as a director on several boards. She will be in conversation with Deepa Purushothaman\, a former senior executive at Deloitte and author\, speaker\, and founder of multiple businesses. Her debut book\, The First\, The Few\, The Only\, was published to international acclaim in 2022. She recently founded the re.write\, an unconventional think tank advancing a new story of work. She is also an Executive Fellow at Harvard Business School. \nThis event suitable for youth 12+. It will be recorded and available on FAN’s website and YouTube channel.

SUMMARY:[FAN] Writing for Busy Readers: Communicate More Effectively in the Real World Todd Rogers\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, January 30\, 2024\, 7:00 PM\, Writing for Busy Readers: Communicate More Effectively in the Real World\, a FAN webinar featuring Todd Rogers\, Ph.D.\, in conversation with Angela Duckworth\, Ph.D. \nREGISTER: www.bit.ly/RogersFANWebinar \nBONUS AFTER-HOURS EVENT: Attendees who purchase a copy of Writing for Busy Readers from FAN’s partner bookseller The Book Stall are invited to attend an AFTER-HOURS event hosted by Rogers that will start immediately after the webinar. Details on the webinar registration page. \nBusy readers routinely decide how valuable a message is without actually reading it. In one recent survey\, people reported skimming nearly 40 percent of their emails and 20 percent of their texts. We may have been taught the fundamentals of writing well in school—but how do we write effectively in this current hyperinteractive environment? Writing for Busy Readers: Communicate More Effectively in the Real World by Todd Rogers\, Ph.D. and Jessica Lasky-Fink\, Ph.D. is both an essential guide of practical writing advice and a fascinating adventure through the science of why these strategies work. \nThe book begins by unpacking the science and psychology of how (busy) people read\, then details six research-backed principles for effective writing. Along the way\, the authors provide intriguing insights drawn from the leading scientific research and hundreds of their own original\, randomized experiments on the topic. The principles for effective writing are rooted in the universals of human nature: the mind’s limited attention and focus\, the rules of thumb it uses\, the behaviors of busy people\, and the ways that we give and receive information through written messages. \nRogers is a Professor of Public Policy at Harvard Kennedy School of Government and a behavioral scientist specializing in the science of effective communication. He is the faculty director of the Behavioral Insights Group\, faculty chair of the executive education program Behavioral Insights and Public Policy\, senior scientist at ideas42\, and academic advisor at the Behavioral Insights Team. Rogers will be in conversation with Angela Duckworth\, Ph.D. (FAN ’12\, ’16)\, co-founder of Character Lab\, Rosa Lee and Egbert Chang Professor at the University of Pennsylvania\, faculty co-director of the Penn-Wharton Behavior Change for Good Initiative\, founding faculty co-director of Wharton People Analytics\, and author of the international bestseller Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance. \nThis event suitable for youth 12+. It will be recorded and available on FAN’s website and YouTube channel.
