"Mean Girls: From High School to the Workplace"

Rosalind Wiseman, the author of "Queen Bees and Wannabes," which inspired the movie "Mean Girls," now focuses on helping adult women navigate workplace dynamics reminiscent of high school cliques. Despite cultural movements promoting female camaraderie, Wiseman believes there is still deep-rooted social conditioning to undo, as evidenced by the continued prevalence of mean-girl behavior in the workplace. She spends much of her time speaking and consulting with schools, government agencies, and corporations, emphasizing the importance of understanding and addressing these dynamics.
