Switch Hitting: How Women's Soaring Economic Power is Changing Men and Fatherhood
Loading...
Uploaded by ClaymanInstitute on Jul 13, 2011
Women now represent half the U.S. workforce: While many struggles remain, it's clear that most women have learned to switch hit—to play equally well in the workforce as in the family. Men, however, are only just starting to swing for the home team, taking on greater family responsibilities. Jeremy Adam Smith, author The Daddy Shift, and Christine Larson, co-author of Influence, explore why the next step in the gender revolution is up to men--and how they can be mobilized for work-family balance.
Jeremy Adam Smith is a John S. Knight Fellow at Stanford and author of The Daddy Shift: How Stay-at-Home Dads, Breadwinning Moms, and Shared Parenting Are Transforming the American Family.
Christine Larson is a visiting lecturer in communication and co-author, with Maddy Dychtwald, of Influence: How Women's Soaring Economic Power Will Change Our World for the Better.

I'm glad to see the economic improvements women have made. I'm looking forward to women working full time plus frequent overtime for the next 40 to 50 years. You go girl ! See you in the office at 8pm for the 12 evening in a row to meet the deadline ! Oh yeah, I like spending their hard earned money. Kind of nice for a change.
