- Description
- According to a study by the ILO (2001), women's share of the labour force is increasing worldwide. Today, women's participation rate in the labour force is over 40 per cent of the global workforce. .Higher educational levels and falling fertility rates have contributed to this increased participation. There is also some evidence that women in some Asian countries may be less marginalised in their advancement into top managerial positions than their counterparts elsewhere. .As women become more educated and qualified for managerial positions, the number of Asian women managers and executives is predicted to rise over the next decade. This book examines the opportunities and barriers for women managers in Asia and presents an update on their progress in management.

- Description
- De meeste boeken over het Nederlandse zakenleven worden geschreven door consultants of andere toeschouwers. Dat geldt niet voor Sheila Struyck: zij zit zelf in de boardroom van het Nederlandse bedrijfsleven, als vice-president bij een grote multinational. Vanuit die boardroom schrijft ze al jaren observaties. Met bekijkt met eerlijkheid vergaderingen waarin mannen met de armen in de nek zitten, slecht voorbereide presentaties en overvolle mailboxen, maar ook schrijft ze aanstekelijk over de managementlessen van haar hond, de wijsheden van Chinese collega's en waarom een cafébaantje een plus is op elk cv.

- This reader examines the ways in which work influences our roles in both the public and private spheres. Goodman has selected a key set of essays that examine influential arguments on such themes as the origins of the gendered division of labor: historical trends and economic transformations that affect and are affected by women's position in market and non-market work: the effects of occupational and job segregation by sex on status, pay, and promotion: the ways in which formal and informal organizational culture shape and in turn are shaped by gender in professional and managerial positions: class consciousness among wage-earning men and women: the different forms of gender discrimination that women and men face in the workplace: the problems working parents face and the ways in which different societies, subcultures and genders cope: and alternative approaches to improving the lives of working women and their families in the global economy.
