Women and men in senior management – a “different needs” hypothesis
Tập 16 Số 8 - Trang 400-404 - 2001
Victoria J. O’Connor
Whilst agreeing wholeheartedly that a “glass ceiling” exists and restricts entry of women into senior management positions, this article postulates that this factor only partly explains why there are fewer women in senior level management positions than there are men.

Gender on the agenda 2: unlearning gender blindness in management education
Tập 19 Số 6 - Trang 293-303 - 2004
