Good morning, Broadsheet readers! Serena Williams racked up another “Serena Slam,” IBM has a plan to help nursing moms avoid the dreaded “pump and dump,” and Hillary is expected to tack left today. Have a productive Monday.

EVERYONE'S TALKING

• No more pump and dump. Fortune's Michal Lev-Ram writes that IBM plans to start helping working moms ship their expressed breast milk back home to their babies when traveling on business. Given the number of tech firms that are struggling to attract and retain women, let's hope this move inspires other companies to offer such thoughtful (and relatively inexpensive) perks. Fortune

ALSO IN THE HEADLINES

• Crisis averted? European leaders say they have finally reached a deal meant to resolve Greece's debt crisis. German Chancellor Angela Merkel says Greece "has shown a willingness and readiness to carry out reforms" and recommended that German Parliament accept the deal.  New York Times

• Taking a left turn. Hillary Clinton is expected to speak about her vision for the economy today, focusing on boosting the middle class and addressing income inequality. This shift to the left comes at a time when her more progressive opponent, Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, is experiencing a surge of support. Time

• Another Serena Slam. Serena Williams crushed Garbiñe Muguruza of Spain to win the women's final at Wimbledon on Saturday. Williams is now just one win away from her first Grand Slam, the extraordinary feat of winning the four major tournaments in a single year, and remains—as she has for years—the dominant player in tennis, irrespective of gender.   Time

• Muscle=Manlike? Speaking of women's tennis, this story examines the body-image issues that continue to plague some pro players. While some tennis pros aim to emulate the muscular frame of players like Williams—who says growing confident in her build was a long process—others admit they avoid bulking up because it makes them "feel unfeminine."   New York Times

• Manage This, PepsiCo! In her new column, Manage This!, Fortune's Jennifer Reingold examines what a recent flurry of leadership changes mean for PepsiCo and its CEO, Indra Nooyi.  Fortune

• The Angelina effect. The number of women with breast cancer who opt to undergo a double mastectomy is on the rise. One factor: the "Angelina effect," named for Angelina Jolie, who had the surgery as a preventive measure when she learned she has a genetic predisposition for breast cancer. Yet many doctors say that the drastic procedure can create a significant risk of complications and, in some cases, makes returning cancer more likely to spread elsewhere in the body. WSJ

• Hacked out of a job. U.S. Office of Personnel Management director Katherine Archuleta has stepped down in the wake of massive hacks that compromised the sensitive information of more than 20 million Americans. Beth Cobert, deputy director of the Office of Management and Budget, will temporarily take over her post. Fortune

MPW INSIDER MONDAYS

Each week, Fortune asks our Insider Network — an online community of prominent people in business and beyond — for career and leadership advice. Here's some of the best of what we heard last week.

• Jettison the jerks. Not sure how to deal with an annoyingly competitive colleague? Think about your company's culture, says Kristin Lemkau, CMO of JPMorgan Chase. Jerks tend to get weeded out in most workplaces, but if bad behavior is the norm in yours, you might just want to move on.  Fortune

• Land that interview. Terri McClements, market managing partner for the Washington Metro region of PwC, has three tips for putting together a resume that will rise above the pack. Fortune

• Change is the new black. Change is scary, says Linda Addison, U.S. Managing Partner at Norton Rose Fulbright. To lead through a time of transition, take the time to reassure your team, but not too much, since incremental change gives people more time to resist.  Fortune

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT

• Ka-Pao goes Ellen. Ellen Pao resigned as CEO of Reddit on Friday, posting a goodbye note on the site saying “the good [parts of her tenure were] off-the-wall inspiring, and the ugly made me doubt humanity.” While she certainly made some missteps at the company, it seems clear that Pao's gender—and her discrimination suit against former employer Kleiner Perkins—may have played a role in her ouster.

• Fighting crime...or the police? Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, who fired her police commissioner last week, faces a difficult challenge: She must rein in the sometimes abusive behavior of her city's Police Department, while at the same time bringing crime under control.   New York Times

• A rookie move. Twenty-year old In Gee Chun of South Korea won the U.S. Women’s Open yesterday, becoming the first player to win her debut at the golf tournament since 2005.  The Guardian

• Comic-Con discovers women. Between fans dressed as female characters from Mad Max: Fury Road and Pixar's Inside Out and panels tackling gender issues in entertainment, New York Times film critic A.O. Scott writes that feminism was a major theme of this year's Comic-Con. New York Times

• She's back in the ring. Sixteen years ago, Kellie Maloney—then known as Frank—managed boxer Lennox Lewis when he won the world heavyweight title. Now, as the first transgender boxing manager (she completed gender-reassignment surgery two months ago), she's looking to get back in the fight.  Rolling Stone

• The woman behind the woman. When publisher J. B. Lippincott Company bought Harper Lee's Go Set a Watchman manuscript back in the 1950s, the novel ended up on the desk of editor Therese von Hohoff Torrey — known as Tay Hohoff. During the next couple of years, Hohoff worked with Lee on draft after draft, eventually helping her produce the book that was retitled To Kill a Mockingbird.  New York Times
