Webinar: Women In the Workforce – How to Stay Professional When Things Get Personal

With women comprising 50% of the workforce it is more likely than ever that the average female lawyer, clerk, judge, or mediator will work with women, work for women, and manage other women as part of her job. Research shows that women tend to relate to other women differently than they relate to men. The female desire to “tend and befriend” creates business woman-to-woman associations that can be either very positive or extremely difficult.

Based on the book Mean Girls at Work – How to Stay Professional When Things get Personal, by Katherine Crowley and Kathi Elster.

This presentation examines the different ways that women in the legal profession may compete with each other, and offers field-tested techniques for breaking free from or avoiding power struggles between women at work. Participants will learn how to transform difficult woman-to-woman interactions from personal battles to professional alliances.
