General Note Includes bibliographical references and index.
"Sabrina Rachel Cohen-Hatton (born 1983) is a British firefighter, psychologist and writer. She is the Chief Fire Officer of the West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service." -- Wikipedia.
Summary Note "Two people are firefighters and do the same jobs. When one is asked what they do for a living, their response is met with: 'That's amazing, you are so brave!', while the other is asked: 'Isn't that dangerous? Aren't you scared? What about your kids?' Can you guess the difference between the two? These comments are the reality for Dr Sabrina Cohen-Hatton and many other women at work and in life. Gender biases stop women from succeeding - but why are certain qualities associated with success viewed less favourably for women? Sabrina is one of the most senior women fire officers in the world and has a degree in Psychology and a PhD in Behavioural Neuroscience. She has first-hand experience of the hurdles women face to become successful. In 'The gender bias', she explores the everyday prejudices women experience through the prism of success." - Back cover.
"From leadership, to risk-taking, perception and failure, Sabrina exposes the invisible barriers that are holding women back. She unpicks why women are judged differently, examines why that matters and offers practical solutions on how we can tackle our biases and overcome sustained systems." - Back cover.
