Are You Being 'Reasonable' -- Or Just Privileged? | Dr. Rosalind Chow

Welcome to Behavioral Grooves, the podcast that explores our human condition. I'm Kurt Nelson and I'm Tim Houlihan. Together we interview researchers, academics, and practitioners about how behavioral science applies to our work life and our home life. And today we're thrilled to have Dr. Rosalind Chow joining us to discuss her new book, The Doors You Can Open: A New Way to Network, Build Trust.

and use your influence to create a more inclusive workplace. Rosalind is an associate professor of organizational behavior and theory at Carnegie Mellon University's Tepper School of Business. Her research focuses on social hierarchies, relationships, and how our networks influence our careers. Yeah, and Rosalind helps us reframe the concept of networking. For many of us, networking feels transactional, all about what we can get out of this thing, right?

But Rosalind offers an insightful perspective that transforms networking from a self-marketing activity into one that builds genuine connections. Absolutely. And for our listeners who are applying behavioral science in their workplaces, her insights on social capital versus power dynamics provides practical frameworks for developing more effective relationships. Her explanations of these concepts might significantly change how we approach leadership in our organizations.
