Women don't ask (and don't get) and other gender biases at work

09/03/2026 Laura Hospido

Would your work be valued the same if you were a woman instead of a man? What about the other way round? Are parts of your career shaped less by talent and more by gender? In this episode of CIENxCIEN, the Banco de España lifts the lid on the invisible prejudices at work, exploring how gender biases still drive opportunities, risks and appraisals. We need to change the score, not the orchestra, if we want to make the music sing.
