Scenario

When collaborative projects develop unspoken hierarchies

My friend and I have been working on this documentary for eight months and somewhere along the way it became her film with me as support, even though we started as equals. I keep showing up and doing the work but I've stopped bringing my real ideas because the dynamic has shifted and I don't know how to shift it back without seeming petty.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

An implicit power dynamic has emerged that contradicts your stated equality, creating resentment that undermines the work itself.
