I’d like to start by looking back at my childhood and analyzing the type of interactions we had [...]
In a MSNBC blog post it was suggested that women aren’t interested in helping each other in the workplace. According to a 2007 study by the Workplace Bullying Institute cited in the MSNBC article, women were more likely to target other women (71 percent), compared to men who bully other men (54 percent.)
