What if the key to stronger allyship is simply starting with partnership?
In this episode of the ScienceForWork Podcast, our host, Dr. Matt Lampe, is joined by organizational psychologist Dr. Victoria Mattingly, who shares why allyship isn’t a title—it’s a behavior. We explore how genuine inclusion occurs through partnership, not saviorism, and why allyship must be fluid, intentional, and collaborative.
You’ll hear:
Why most allyship efforts overlook the partner side of the equation
How behavior, not identity, defines inclusion
The 3 traits of great allies (and great partners)
What organizations can do to make allyship stick
Dr. Mattingly also shares insights from her upcoming book, which flips the script on how we support one another across differences—and why that reframe matters now more than ever.
