The Oxford Handbook of Gender in Organizations provides an in-depth analysis of gender inequality and its impact within organizations. This reference work is written by international experts and addresses current theories and research in the field of gender in business.
Description
The handbook examines inequality between men and women within organizations, leadership, careers, and male identities. The book consists of four parts: theoretical backgrounds, leadership and management issues, gender and careers, and the diversity of masculinity in the workplace. It thus offers a broad, multidisciplinary overview of thinking and research on gender, with attention to both progress made and existing challenges.
With this comprehensive approach it provides the Oxford Handbook a solid foundation for further research and practical insights into the role of gender within organizations.
