▶️ youtu.be/EnrEWNYzxh4 What if raising your child has quietly become a job you never signed up for? Dr. Nina Bandelj, Chancellor's Professor of Sociology at @UCIrvine, interviewed 120 parents and found that modern parenting has transformed into an "Emotional Economy", where children are both priceless treasures and investment projects, leaving parents pouring in their money, emotions, and entire identities. In her book Overinvested: The Emotional Economy of Modern Parenting, she reveals how this culture of over-investment exhausts parents, undermines children's resilience, and actively grows inequality. Her work isn't a judgment on parents, it's a call for systemic change, to reimagine children as a shared societal responsibility, not a private project. Catch this powerful conversation on the Business Talk Podcast.

Every so often, we meet thinkers who help us see what we’ve been missing. Today’s guest, Dr. Isabelle Solal, is one of them. She brings a unique journey, from high-stakes law to academia at @essec, to study how gender quietly shapes perceptions of competence, ambition, and success in entrepreneurship and organizations. Her latest work on investor gender and female entrepreneurs uncovers the hidden biases behind funding decisions. Delighted to welcome Dr. Isabelle Solal to the podcast. #BusinessTalk #EntrepreneurshipResearch #GenderAndOrganizations #WomenInEntrepreneurship #WorkplaceInequality

▶️ youtu.be/5N-4yb5QDDw Are universities truly teaching innovation, or just talking about it? Dr. Caroline Levander of @RiceUniversity says creativity is the #1 skill employers want. Are colleges delivering? #InventEd #FutureOfWork #AI

I came to the conclusion that there are two kinds of productivity, one productive, the other destructive. The problem is that economists can’t tell the difference. mintzberg.org/blog/productiv…

His work tackles the big questions in macroeconomics, from economic growth and technology adoption to inequality and public policy.

Now, he brings it all together in his landmark book, "The Israeli Economy: A Story of Success and Costs." Tune in tomorrow as Prof. Zeira walks us through the successes, the costs, and the lessons that lie between the two.

What if economics isn't just about numbers - but about culture, power, and emotions? Meet Dr. Nina Bandelj, Chancellor's Professor of Sociology at @UCIrvine, @Princeton-trained, and author of six books reshaping how we understand money, debt, and inequality. Her latest book, Overinvested, asks the question many parents feel but rarely say out loud - what happens when raising a child feels less like love and more like labor?
