"One day a colleague invited her to a presentation – based on the title, the topic was so perfectly aligned with her project that she decided to join and learn what another researcher in her large organization identified and concluded. Hundreds of senior people were on the call. As the presenter started talking, she recognized his voice. Within seconds, she realized that he was presenting her work. He did not even change the slide template – he simply removed her name and placed his own as lead researcher. She felt shocked and hurt. The day after she met with their shared manager to get counsel on next steps. After listening to the full story, the manager looked at her and said: “If you were smarter this would not have happened – you would have protected your work.”
