Our Spring Seminar Series: Make Work Fair | Our virtual spring seminar series explores what workplaces that work for everyone might look like, based on ideas from Iris Bohnet and Siri Chilazi's new book 'Make Work Fair.' The seminar focuses on research explaining why fairness cannot be a program but must be a way of doing things, and how employees at any level can implement the three-part framework outlined in 'Make Work Fair'— to make fairness count, make it stick, and make it "normal."
