7 Pieces of Bad Career Advice Women Should Ignore
With so much advice being thrown at young women, it’s hard to know what to follow and what to ignore. Organizational psychologist Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic and CEO of IfWeRanTheWord Cindy Gallop provide a list of popular suggestions that they believe are best neglected: Find a mentor. Instead, look for a champion, someone who has the agency to influence people at the top and will use it to help you. Women are constantly told to be less apologetic. But we need to worry less about editing women, and more about editing incompetent and inappropriate men. Ignore advice columns that tell you to gain more confidence. The problem isn’t women’s lack of confidence, but men’s oversupply of it. Men are rarely told to find work-life balance, so why should you be? Instead, find somewhere to work that will respect the balance you choose. Don’t “fake it till you make it.” Talk up your accomplishments, your intention, and your vision in a way that gets you recognized. “Just be yourself” is a trite piece of advice. Instead, find a psychologically safe workplace where you really can be. Finally, don’t ask for advice. Your intuition and gut instinct are far more valuable.
