Event Description

Workplace hierarchies can evoke fear, anger, and envy in employees who feel caught in competition with coworkers and under relentless pressure from dominant bosses. The ensuing uncertainty and instability harm employee well-being and undermine organizational performance. Stanford social influence expert Nir Halevy argues that this is because we&#39;re doing hierarchy wrong. When done right, hierarchies can be beneficial, and not just for whoever is at the top.
In his book, Halevy draws on scientific evidence, interviews, and real-world stories to explain how you can diagnose a broken hierarchy and help fix it, introducing a framework and concrete solutions that apply to employees across ranks and roles.
Join BISG for an interactive book talk with Stanford Professor Nir Halevy, author of Level Up: Why Hierarchies Are Broken and How to Fix Them, moderated by Julian Zlatev of Harvard Business School to learn practical ways to navigate and shape organizational hierarchies.
