She sees a younger worker, well-educated, enter the company and immediately take responsibility from her, and feels threatened. Anita would likely have seen Bill's arrival as an opportunity to free Susan up for bigger projects. Her handing responsibility to Bill was supposed to empower Susan, but eventually it morphed into a sense that Bill might be better suited for a role of higher responsibility, something that Susan eventually sensed herself.
The underlying thread of the different problems is that Susan lacks self-confidence and does not see herself as a leader. She has framed these situations -- and her performance review -- in a negative light. This reflects an underlying lack of confidence that Susan has not been able to identify in herself. Anita, now that she has moved to the other side of the office, has diminished ability to understand this about Susan...

Many employers refused to hire women despite governmental regulations, or hired them at much lower rates than their male counterparts. While society was expanding their gender role again, the limitations surrounding this expansion left women confused as to their position in society (Rupp, 74). Even those who supported the new roles accepted them only in a temporary fashion, expected women to return again to their role of homemaker and
Here the emphasis is on complete neutrality, the child being exposed to all different ways of thinking and believing (Cahn, p. 421). In the end the child will make his own choice as to what is best. Such complete freedom; however, rests upon a notion that children might indeed make incorrect choices; ones that are base don incomplete knowledge of the real world. The need to make rational choice
Nature of Capitalism Susan Strange's theories of capitalism Giovanni Arrighi's theories of capitalism Capitalism, an economic which has dominated the Western world after the catastrophic failure of feudalism (Encyclopedia Britannica,2006). No consensus exists for an accurate definition of the term as well as how the term has been employed as a historical category (Rowman & Littlefield, 1999, p.1). .
