Lean Out

"Lean Out" is a movement and mindset that challenges traditional workplace norms, particularly those that expect constant availability and conformity, often disadvantaging women and marginalized groups. It encourages individuals to set boundaries, prioritize well-being, and advocate for flexible and equitable work environments. Rather than "leaning in" to often demanding expectations, "lean out" emphasizes balance, autonomy, and fairness, empowering people to shape their careers and lives in ways that align with their values and needs while fostering diversity and inclusion.
