SHOW NOTES:

Peter Belmi, Professor at the Darden School of Business at University of Virginia, studies power, social class and inequality. We discussed how the beliefs we hold about ourselves – many formed by our class background – can perpetuate social inequality. We look at how the world and organizations are not a fair place, but where we have the power to do something about that.

Embrace new things: Peter on Filipino food and Hamilton

Peter’s research in one sentence and why he focuses on inequality

How your social class can shape what you view as a “good person” – and how that impacts what you will and won’t do in organizations

The conundrum: Why people from working class backgrounds may make better leaders – but often don’t get into those positions

The reframe: how re-thinking behaviors that feel “icky” can benefit us

Million $ question: So… how should I show up at my meeting next week?

Before you seek power, you need to first ask this critical question!

Think about power in a different way to “keep yourself in the game”

Ends vs means, and how to ensure you don’t get lost in the journey

Does power corrupt?

The value of “structured introspection” with a coach

The biggest barrier people have with power

“Give yourself a shot” – agency, when you should opt out

Leading with vulnerability without having it get used against you - “Being situationally appropriate” and “Powering up and powering down”

Do we have a real self? Why U.S students often push back on the idea of “playing roles”

How one student “created something out of nothing” to land the job she wanted (power skills in action)• Personal qualities, positioning yourself strategically and relationship management

How to Get Promoted: “Your job is to find the right people and get them excited about you.”

How a controversial fashion blogger will piss you off – but can teach you about crafting a path to power (Peter’s Bryanboy case study)

Meta-lesson: How being judgmental causes us to stop learning – and holds us back from building power
