@acfeldberg finds that a “task bind” exists when women managers try to disprove negative stereotypes by spending time on one set of tasks at the expense of others.

I am thrilled to share that my article, which introduces a new way that stereotypes can undermine women's ability to be effective managers--what I call a "task bind"--is now available via open access @ASQJournal. (1/8)
Why do women managers face a task bind? My interviews show that part of the reason is that they feel pressure to show the people they manage that they are competent and capable in roles where they are stereotyped as not being competent and capable. (7/8)

Case authors may inadvertently introduce bias to their case through their description of the protagonist. @HarvardHBS’s @acfeldberg & Anthony Mayo highlight the best practices experienced case authors use to describe protagonists’ social identities.
