“Status” – one of the biggest determinants of our quality of life and career success – is poorly understood and rarely discussed. Professor Alison Fragale, organizational psychologist and bestselling author of Likeable Badass: How Women Get the Success They Deserve, will shed light on the science of status.
What it is, why it matters, and how we leverage it for individual and collective success?
This video features Professor Alison Fragale, author of Likable Badass: How Women Get the Success They Deserve. Professor Fragale’s book and discussion focus on the “science of status,” arguing that respect from others—achieved by balancing warmth (caring for others) and assertiveness (being capable and results-oriented)—is fundamental for influence and success in negotiation and mediation, regardless of gender. She provides actionable advice on building rapport, self-promotion, and navigating challenging situations while maintaining both warmth and assertiveness.
