"The Toughest Female Secretary" Incident Reflects Corporate Social Anxiety - Psychology - Psychology Express

In the public mind, the relationship between a secretary and his or her boss should be one of docile obedience. However, a female secretary at a Beijing-based foreign company did not act in such a way when facing harsh criticism from the president of the Greater China region of her company. She was not obedient at all; instead, she replied with an openly defiant open letter, insisting that she was correct, accusing her superior of being domineering, and stating that her boss had no right to interfere with her private time. Within a few days, this open letter was quickly forwarded like wildfire across all well-known foreign companies nationwide and on the internet. Many people also left comments on the email, such as "truly impressive" and "feeling relieved." This female secretary has been hailed as the "toughest female secretary in history" because of her courage... The event reveals a psychological issue hidden within society: the corporate cynicism personality conceals collective frustration. -psytopic.com
