This workshop will explore strategies to help women faculty members in K-12 education, colleges, and universities understand and overcome barriers to their advancement in careers related to physics. A major focus of the workshop will be on strategies for navigating effectively in different situations in order to succeed despite the gender schema, stereotypes, and subtle biases against women physicists. We will also examine case studies and learn effective strategies by role playing.
