Abstract: Abstract Erin is a 29-year-old financial planner. She is facing her first set of gender-related setbacks. Erin is concerned she’s not on partner track due to her inability to comfortably socialize with her male superiors at bars and on the golf course. She also recently became aware that the administrative staff projected their girlfriends’ or mothers’ “nagging” onto her when she gives them instructions or follows up on client progress. In her annual review, she noticed that she and the other female financial planner in the firm were more harshly criticized than their male peers for the firm’s shortcomings.
