Scenario

When work partnerships develop unspoken and unequal divisions of labor

My research partner and I have been co-authoring papers for two years and we've developed this pattern where I do most of the writing and she does most of the analysis but neither of us has ever explicitly agreed to this division and I'm starting to resent it but I don't know if she even sees the imbalance.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people have fallen into implicit roles that serve one person's strengths while creating hidden resentment about fairness.
