Gender Relations In The Workplace Sessions at the symposium focused on bridging race bridging generations bridging the global divide among women and ways in which gender imbalance can fuel dysfunctional relationships among women in the workplace. In each experts presented the findings of extensive studies. Ely discussed a line of research in which she interviewed women at several law firms noting both positive and negative interactions among peers and supervisors. the consistent mediating factor was whether the women considered their gender to be a detriment to success. In short women who didn t feel hindered by their gender at work tended to have healthier workplace relationships with each other than those who did.
