Welcome to the Modern Husbands podcast, where any combination of Dr. Bruce Ross, Christian Sherrill, and Brian Page host national experts who share winning ideas to manage money and the home as a team.
Today we welcome Dr. David Smith who teaches at the Johns Hopkins Carey Business School.
A former Navy pilot, Dr. Smith led diverse organizations of women and men culminating in command of a squadron in combat and flew more than 3,000 hours over 30 years including combat missions in Iraq and Afghanistan.
As a sociologist trained in military sociology and social psychology, he focuses his research in gender, work, and family issues including bias in performance evaluations, retention of women, dual career families, military families, and women in the military.
Dr. Smith is the co-author of Good Guys: How Men Can Be Better Allies for Women in the Workplace.
On today’s episode, we discuss how husbands can be better allies for their wives who work outside the home
