[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You voucher for her to join the group. Pull her aside and let her know that her flirting behavior has been noticed by others and is unprofessional. Give her specific examples because she may not know what she’s doing.

Check in with her between WG meetings and pose questions for her to consider or something she should prepare prior to the meeting. If and when she doesn’t do those things, let her know you don’t think she’s puller her weight and you won’t be able to recommend her for WGs in the future. [/quote]
Good lord no. This woman is 28. She knows what she is doing. Leave the situation alone and focus on your own work.[/quote]

+1. She's not that young and knows exactly what she's doing. I am unsure why people are underestimating her. I understand op's point, but part of me thinks her frustration comes from being played. Op's ego was flattered to be sought out seemingly to mentor, but was actually used as a stepping stone.

I'm cautious about who I take under my wing. I find the younger people today to be far more ruthless and cunning than my generation (gen X).[/quote]
