Thank you @AdamMGrant! A very timely post! We @WomenInPHM @JulieLKim @dr_leenz @BAfghaniMD @DrJessieAllan are proud to moderate a Negotiation presentation by two renowned speakers in Pediatrics: Dr. Barrett Fromme and Dr. Mary Ottolini this coming Tuesday.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Women who stand up for themselves get penalized.

51 studies: a woman who negotiates for herself fears—and faces—backlash as selfish & aggressive.

If she negotiates for others, suddenly she seems caring.

I want to live in a world that celebrates women advocating for themselves.

[Women in PHM @WomenInPHM]

Learning the skills for successful negotiation is crucial for all @WomenInPHM!

Join us for "The Negotiation Game and How to Win" on 11/16 from 12-1 pm CST with national #PedsHM leaders Drs. Barrett Fromme & Mary Ottolini!
