Commence

You have colleague at a think tank who is curious about the determinants of the  gender gap for young female professionals. Assume that the colleague is based in  your home country if you are from somewhere besides North America – or from a  European country of your choosing if you are North American. 

Your colleague has become aware of research by Marianne Bertrand, Claudia Goldin,  and Lawrence Katz, “Dynamics of the Gender Gap for Young Professionals in the  Financial and Corporate Sectors,” American Economic Journal: Applied Economics, 2  (July 2010).

However, your colleague is busy and therefore enlists you as a consultant. She asks  you to review the study and draft a short memo on the key findings and implications  of the research.  

Your review should comprise a short memo that: 

1. Clearly explains the take away story of the research. 

2. Briefly summarizes the approach, methodology, and main findings of the  research. 

3. Assesses the key strengths and weaknesses of the study. 

4. Discusses any implications of the study for policy and for understanding the  gender gap in your colleague’s country. 

Your colleague is aware that there are existing commentaries on this particular work  and on the broader questions at hand. She is interested in your own views. Your  colleague and the think tank take an extremely dim view of plagiarism – entirely  consistent with the regulations described in the MPA Programme Handbook . 

Your memo should demonstrate your technical understanding of the relevant  material, but your client does not want to see mathematical expressions or algebra.  The memo should address the key points above in clear language – so that  someone without extensive training in quantitative analysis can understand what the  study offers and how it might be evaluated. 

Write clearly. Do not hesitate to use the LSE LIFE or Language Centre resources on  writing or to get feedback from a friend/colleague in order to ensure your work is  clear and well written. 

Finally, your client’s time is short. Her mind will wander if your memo is longer than  two A4 pages using a 12-point font, 1.5 line spacing, and margins of one inch on all  sides. She will not look at even the most brilliant insights that spill beyond this length. Any references cited can go on page 3. Good design of the memo and clear  writing will also make it easier for her to absorb the message and happier when  assessing its content. The deadline for submitting your work is 16.00 (UK time) on  Thursday 3 December. All students need to submit an electronic copy of their work  to Moodle using the submission portal on the PP455 page.
