In the business world, barriers to inclusion are barriers to success, states a line from the books Introduction. Diversity breeds better solutions faster if people feel comfortable in their environment. But from small indignities to unconscious slights, women experience situations at work every day that may seem small or unimportant but that effectively differentiate and exclude them. These are not #MeToo moments - they are micro-offenses; the small, awkward, or uncomfortable moments that slow-build until the unwelcome environment takes hold and women disengage.
Situations the authors address range from things like use of the term girl versus woman, watching male colleagues leave work for a social event where women colleagues were left off the invite list or hearing that a qualified woman shouldnt be offered an assignment because she has small children at home. You Should Smile More shows witnesses, allies, supervisors, and women at every level in their careers how to dismantle everyday gender bias, based upon the latest research, personal accounts, and interviews with dozens of professionals, both women and men.
Widely known as a meme, the title itself is now a call-to-action against the very advice women so frequently hear from male colleagues or bosses. The authors spotlight these all-too-familiar moments, offering realistic strategies every witness can use to confront and productively address them. The information within the book finally advances women in the corporate workplace as equals and advances organizations on the path to creating cultures of true inclusion.
The authors call themselves The Band of Sisters and have collectively seen it all, from the bottom rung to the boardroom. They know firsthand how hard it is to navigate these gendered situations in the moment. Now they share their experience with a forward-looking eye often with humor, and in a way that recognizes the realities of the workplace.
With this book as a guide, The Band of Sisters are ready to:
+ Help anyone to recognize and effectively respond to these micro-moments rooted in gender bias.
+ Pave the way for their ultimate elimination, through shared participation.
+ Allow organizations to build high-performance cultures that truly value and include diverse perspectives and experiences.
Gender bias has been part of our workplaces for too long. We are at the point now where all of us who are in the workplace, around conference tables, water coolers and in Zoom meetings, must make the next push for real change.

The Band of Sisters has embraced my first golden rule for changing the gamebook enabling all women to finally succeed in the workplace. For all women to advance in the masculine-centered workplace, they must come together using their voices and energy to dismantle gender discriminatory systems brick by brick. These sisters have the proven grit, influence, and grace (GIG) to do just that! Their combined wisdom and proven actions for creating a cultural workplace where both women and men can thrive is truly invaluable.

YouShould Smile More is a must read for any executive that wants to make an impact and lead by example. It answers the questions you have and even the ones you didnt know you should have. The book is filled with real life examples of how to (and not to) get the most out of your teams.
Russell WeinerChief Operating Officer and President, Dominos US
A woman walks into a conference room for a meeting. Already at the table are two men, deep into a discussion of last nights football game. As more men enter, they join the sports talk. Shes not a football fan. She waits patiently for the conversation to turn to business.
Colleagues are talking about a new, plum assignment that has come open. When a womans name is mentioned, a man says: Oh, she cant take it. She has two little kids.
Its Bagel Tuesday and the catered platters are wrapped and in the center of the conference table. Men enter the room, but nobody touches food. Its a Cellophane Standoff. It lingers until a woman arrives and unwraps the breakfast.
If you are a woman in any of these situations, you may be feeling a whiff of gender bias but not sure if or how to react. Or you could be a co-worker who witnesses a slight, and would like to be an ally. Or youre the boss and you came up in a time when all these issues were discussed and debated and supposedly addressed and all you can do is roll your eyes and think: Really?!? Still?!?
What can you do?
We are here to start a new conversation that answers that question. We are six C-suite women with a collective resume that covers twenty-nine industries, from large corporates to small start-ups, holding most every title through the C-suite including CEO, president, chief marketing officer and dozens of boards and advisory positions. We have seen it all, from the bottom rung to the boardroom. We are using our real-world experience to call on all rising leaders and allies to unlock a culture of greatness for women in the workforceone little thing at a time.
You Should Smile More is a book about the workplace offenses many didnt know mattered. The small indignities, barriers, slights (many unconscious) that women face every day in the corporate workplace. They are not #Metoo moments. But they are not nothing either. They are the particles that collect around us and create barriers to our careers. They are the walls that go up, one grain of sand at a time. They are the moments that slow-build until the unwelcome environment takes hold and women disengage.
Ours is a guidefor women and for menready to take on the micro moments and advance women in the corporate workplace as equals. It is the how-to for dismantling everyday gender bias that continues to pervade the work world, from assumptions that keep us out of top jobs to corporate getaways that always seem to feature sports, to meetings at which women are the ones asked to take notes, to greetings where men are offered a handshake and women a hug.
