Why do many women believe that working with other women is more difficult than working with men? One clue: it is not because women are indeed more difficult to work with. After decades of effort to help women succeed in their professional environment, Andie Kramer and Al Harris repeatedly observed that relationships between women cause conflicts in the workplace, hindering their careers. Their research proves that the root of these conflicts lies in stereotypes, toxic assumptions, and societal expectations about how women should behave. Through extensive research and hundreds of interviews, Andie and Al have identified the most difficult scenarios of women's collaboration in the professional environment. It's Not You, It's the Workplace offers practical and immediately applicable techniques that will allow women to develop strong networks that will enhance their professional success and organizations to structure their policies and practices—unleashing the potential of women in teams. Companies that will succeed in the future will be those where bias does not hinder women's satisfaction or progress towards leadership positions.
