Power and Resistance at Work: Meme

 People think that because they are higher up within an organisation, they carry more power than others. While this is the case in many cases, it is certainly not consistent. For example, while there may be a woman in power within an organization, there may be a large imbalance of men vs women in the workplace, making the women in power feel less powerful (in the ability to communicate their ideas to men who have different thought processes). I had a conversation like this at work a few weeks back: when the female store manager left, the other female managers at the workplace felt less comfortable and less empowered than before. This is one example of many how, even though one may be in a position of power, they may not always feel like it.
