This is what pregnancy in the workplace looks like

This is what pregnancy in the workplace looks likeThis is what pregnancy in the workplace looks likePregnant employees are an increasingly common sight in the workplace as mora pregnant workers stay in the office until the last weeks of their term. While only 44% of women worked full-time during their pregnancies during the 1960s, the number of women working while pregnant has jumped up to almost 66% by 2008, according to a 2015 Pew Research Center report. The majority of pregnant employees today are making the choice to stay working, but as a photo series argues, the images of pregnant employees have not caught up to this reality. From 2009 to 2012, the organization Game Face, now-called Working Assumptions, found that photographs of pregnant people were missing from stock photos. You were mora likely to see the focus on their unborn child in polished birth announcements and bump photos. The number of workers going about their day while pregnant was unseen. The Showing Pregnancy in the Workplace project sought to change this narrative by partnering with photograpzu sichs across America to document pregnant employees at work and off-hours. You see pregnant employees in legislatures, schools, operating rooms, offices, outdoors on ranches and in swamps. You see them busy carrying dishes, resting with swollen feet kicked up, tired with hands to faces. These are pregnant workers in their everyday lives, made visible.Ladders talked to some of the photographers and subjects involved about what these photos can tell us about what it means to be pregnant and working today.On confronting pregnancy assumptionsJulie, Professor of Occupational Therapy, Ithaca, New York / ?Andrea Modica, 2012, Andrea ModicaJulie Dorsey, a professor of occupational therapy in Ithaca, New York, and one of the subjects of the series, said her photo challenges the assumption that having a baby means you are less committed to your job. Dorsey is photographed at the end of her pregnancy after sh e has completed the milestone of finishing her doctorate. Dressed in striking regalia, she stares back at the camera while holding her belly, barefoot and pregnant. I think there is an assumption as a faculty member and a scholar that you will become less productive after having a child, that there are going to be demands outside of work that will lessen your commitment to the institution, she said. For many people, myself included, my work is an important part of who I am even as a mother.Despite federal protection against discrimination, U.S. pregnant employees today still face unfair treatment. Under the 1978 Pregnancy Discrimination Act, employers must treat their pregnant employees similarly to other employees, but not necessarily well.Pregnant employees can get their requests for work accommodations denied, putting their health at risk. Their careers can also be jeopardized. After they disclose their pregnancy to bosses, employees can lose their prestigious clients, get exclud ed from meetings, and get fired for complaining. Federal data showsthousands of womenalleging pregnancy discrimination in America. The late Supreme Court Justice Rehnquist called this mindset the view of seeing women as mothers first, and workers second.For Cristiana Ceppas, the photographer of Neyara, a housekeeper, said that the series takes us different places, helping us see all the many ways pregnancy can and cannot impact your ability to do a job. I think there are people, maybe more men, and some women too, that would think, Oh youre pregnant, you cant do anything, but thats not true, she said. I think that people dont know sometimes how to treat you. They dont know if its okay or not. Theres a lot of tiptoeing. People are judgmental.By showing us the multitudes of ways that people juggle pregnancy and work, the photo series is a visual intervention against this limited perspective.Neyara, Housekeeper? / Cristiana Ceppas, 2012, Cristiana CeppasIn the photo series, we see wom en balance the physical demands of their job with the added weight of a fetus growing inside them. We do not necessarily know what accommodations these workers have been given, but we can see how pregnancy puts these workers bodies on public display. The series asks us to confront our expectations and values around pregnant people working. How long has this healthcare worker been on her feet while taking care of other people? I wondered. How many of these workers have maternity leave and for how long?During her pregnancy, Dorsey said she needed to change footwear to Ugg boots at work to accommodate her bodys changes. Those are the kind unseen challenges workers can face. That physical challenge is really incredible in terms of how pregnant employees may perhaps need to accommodate and find places to sit - or not, if they dont have supportive employers and what a challenge that can be, Dorsey said.Jenn, Elementary School Teacher / ?Tony Gonzalez, 2012, Tony GonzalezThe photo series also shows the quieter, more intimate moments of pregnancy. Tony Gonzalez, one of the photographers who participated in Showing, took photos of pregnant employees that contrast their professional obligations with their private routines. In his photos of Jenn, an elementary school teacher, you see her undressed, getting ready for the day, and put together at her job in front of students. That is an everyday common thing that is not always revealed, Gonzalez said about the photos. His subjects are not posed for the camera. In his photograph of Meghann, a museum membership officer, she is doing the everyday task of opening a refrigerator. This country is really hung up on the glamour to the point I feel can dangerously fetishize pregnancy and make it glamorous, Gonzalez said, noting that his goal is to show an alternative view of that, to show that this isnt set up, highly made-up produced photoshoot, this is real women looking like real women.Meghann, Museum Membership Officer? / Tony Gonzalez, 2012, Tony Gonzalez

Fearless marketing strategies for creative people

Fearless marketing strategies for creative peopleFearless marketing strategies for creative peopleJournalist and authorA.J. Jacobsis renowned for his willingness to take on a challenge, chronicling his extreme lifestyle experiments in his manyNew York Timesbestselling books. Recently, he joinedPanio Gianopoulos, author, Next Big Idea Club Editorial Director, and co-host of theWriterlypodcast, for a candid conversation about how creative people can change their relationship to marketing, learning to embrace it as a part of their art.Follow Ladders on FlipboardFollow Ladders magazines on Flipboard covering Happiness, Productivity, Job Satisfaction, Neuroscience, and moreThis conversation has been edited and condensed.To listen to the full conversation on theWriterlypodcast,click here.PanioMarketing doesnt sound like the sexiest topic in the world, but its absolutely critical.A.J.Oh, yeah. I went into writing partly to avoid being a salesperson and a marketer. And then I realized No one s going to read my stuff if I dont get out there. So I have made a 180, where Ive forced myself to embrace marketing- reframed it, as thecognitive-behavioral psychologistssay, into a creative act. Instead of dreading it, now its, Oh good, I get to have a fun time coming up with creative ideas for marketing.PanioWhat do you do exactly?A.J.I think itd help if I give an example. I wrote a book about following all the rules of the Bible. And I thought, what are some places that wouldnt cover it, but if I can come up with a good angle, maybe they would. So for instance, I knew some people at womens magazines. What if I did a column on sex advice from the Bible? Because the Bibledoestalk about sex. Its got a lot of sex in it. So, I pitched sex advice from the Bible, and they took it. And then I did another one on business advice from the Bible, and music insights from the BibleIts slicing your topic up into different categories as much as you can, to get the word out. My feeling is, if so meone hears about it once, maybe theyll buy it. But if theyre bombarded by it, getting it everywhere- inGlamour, on NPR- then they might pick it up. So, that welches my goal, to blanket as much as I could.PanioThat strategy is assuming that you can pitch articles. If you cant do that, how do you feel about something like blogging? Do you think theres any value to it?A.J.I do. Volunteering to guest blog for people is a nice idea too.Whatever the topic is, there is a way in.And I think anyone can pitch articles. Whatever the topic is, there is a way in. I welches an editor of the front section of a magazine. I got pitched a lot. So I got an idea of what worked for me. One thing that worked, and its embarrassing, is if the person flattered you. People are weak. At least me. So if they said, Oh, I love what you did with this- just be super specific. Look in back issues and find something they wrote and be like, Oh this welches brilliant. And then Im like, Wow, this guys got good tasteJu st write a very short paragraph with a very catchy idea. And the writing for the pitch should be catchy in itself. I wrote a book about family,Its All Relative, andthe thesis was that were all family, were all cousins.And there are behauptung massive online databases where you can put two peoples names in and figure out how theyre related in this ridiculous, Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon way. This is a real one for Barack Obama, I am his sixth great-aunts husbands brothers wifes seventh great-nephew.PanioI binnensee the resemblance.A.J.Ive been told.PanioAround the eyes a little bit.A.J.I actually used that when I was trying to get publicity at events. I would find a reporter or a producer, and say, I know this sounds a little odd, but I just want to let you know that were eighth cousins, and heres how were related, and if you want to do your family member a favor, would you be interested in writing about20 percent of the people were ready to put a restraining order on me. But the vast majority were like, Oh my God, that is so cool. It was the ultimate LinkedIn. Use what you can to connect with the editor. Make a connection, and then pitch something thats interesting to them.I also find that when you just send out books, your chances of getting coverage are pretty low. Which is why Id send out a book, then follow up with a very specific idea on how they could cover it. My latest book is whereI thank a thousand people who helped make my cup of coffee.So I pitched one radio show that, This radio show would not exist without the people who, in Chile, went into a mine and got the copper to make the wires in this microphone. Lets thank a thousand people who helped make this radio show. And that worked. They didnt actually do it that way, but it got them thinking (we mentioned it as a little part of the segment). But youve got to give them more than just, Hey, heres my book.If you get people interested, and following, then there will be more media interest.PanioWhen I was a book editor, a lot of the publicity push was around book reviews. More and more, those seem to be less important for actually selling a book. They have less of an impact. Do you feel thats transferred over to social media?A.J.Thats a good question. You cant control the reviews. But you can, to a slightly greater extent, control the other coverage- if you pitch ideas and write them yourself. So I would say, focus on that. And do something creative with social media. For this book on gratitude, as part of the marketing, I promised to write one thousand handwritten, personalized thank you notes to readers of my books Heres a form on the www. Fill out your name, address, and any message you want me to say. And it has been simultaneously a pain in the ass and, also, wonderful. Its been hugely helpful to hear what connects with people. Some of the requests have been touching. Some have been strange. I was asked to draw a picture of a dog or a taco. I decided I was going to go above and beyond, and draw a dog eating a taco. So Im very proud.PanioYou over-delivered. They should have sent you a thank you note for that dog eating a taco.A.J.A creative way of interacting with your audience through social media is a lovely idea. The other thing I like is posting on social media as Im writing.PanioWhat do you post?A.J.Research. I can take a picture of when I went to Colombia for the book on gratitude, post photos of my trip. The books not out for another year, but you know, get it in peoples minds. Cue it up.PanioI wonder how early youre supposed to promote your book. Thats a question that I discuss with other authors a lot.A.J.Its interesting because publicists, traditionally, say there is a set amount of publicity, like a pie, and you cannot release any of that pie until the book comes out. But I think thats not true. I think the pie grows. If you get people interested, and following, then there will be more media interest.PanioI agree. That first scenario is a ver y old-fashioned, conservative publishing approach, which is about scarcity If you give away too much of the book, people arent going to want to buy it. Which goes radically against where we are with social media, and with the internet at large, where you share almost everything, and people buy it and follow it because they like it.I love the idea of taking something that we see as boring, and reframing it as part of the artistic process.A.J.Exactly. And also, partly its hopefully that theyre buying it as a gift for a friend. Even if they know everything about it, maybe theyll buy it as a gift.PanioTheres certainly something to the many steps required for something to succeed. And theres a kind of serendipity. You never know where something is going to lead.A.J.Totally. I interviewed the artist Christo, who does all this giant public art- he put 10,000 orange curtains in Central Park, and he wrapped the Reichstag in Germany. For the one in Central Park, it literally took him 24 years to pull that off, because he had to go through all this red tape- different mayors, hundreds of studies. And I said to him, How in the world did you keep your interest during that time? That sounds like the opposite of what would be interesting. And he said that his way to deal with it was to see that as part of the art. The red tape was actually part of the artistic process- he would film himself in meetings with the Parks Department. And I love that.I dont do anything quite like that or on that scale, but I love the idea of taking something that we see as boring, and reframing it as part of the artistic process. I think that helped me embrace marketing. You can see it as, Oh my God, Im writing 50 notes to editors. This is the worst- I did not sign up for this as a writer. Or you can say, Im going to write these notes in the most creative and fun way possible, and Im going to come up with fun ways to get this covered, and that is part of my art.PanioI love it. How do you get over feeling like youre being an imposition?A.J.Well, partly its deluding yourself and saying, You know, these people need good content. You have to be delusionally optimistic, that you think, You know whatPanioIm giving them a gift.A.J.Im giving them a gift They are so lucky. I dont always believe that- but if you can convince yourself of that, it makes it a lot easier.This article first appeared on Heleo.You might also enjoyNew neuroscience reveals 4 rituals that will make you happyStrangers know your social class in the first seven words you say, study finds10 lessons from Benjamin Franklins daily schedule that will double your productivityThe worst mistakes you can make in an interview, according to 12 CEOs10 habits of mentally strong people
