Therese Huston, Ph.D. is looking to change how we talk about women at work. Therese is a cognitive scientist at Seattle University and The New York Times calls her new book, How Women Decide “required reading on Wall Street.” She’s debunks popular myths about how men and women make decisions, and she’s written for the New York Times and Harvard Business Review. Therese received her B.A. from Carleton College and her Ph.D. in cognitive psychology from Carnegie Mellon University. Last fall, she gave her first TEDx talk. Her work has been featured in Forbes and the Financial Times, and she’s been interviewed on NPR. Microsoft, Amazon, and Harvard Business School have brought Therese in to lead workshops on how to create more inclusive workplaces for women.
