Organizational Behaviour and Gender provides an alternative to the
gender silence of the standard OB textbooks. This Second Edition
updates and expands the text's coverage and employs the most recent
research findings to portray the world of work in a realistic
manner. Organizational Behaviour and Gender is a comprehensive
text. The text examines some of the assumptions that have been made
about women at work - for example that women's 'difference' is
rooted in biology and that women and men have contrasting (and even
polar opposite) skills and attitudes. The text considers the key
topics in OB (such as selection, assessment,leadership and
motivation) to test such assumptions. The book describes the
reality of working life for women. It examines issues of low pay,
part-time working, family responsibilities, home working and
horizontal and vertical job segregation. It asks whether inequality
of opportunity comes about because of actual gender differences or
from prejudicial expectations and thinking. The last chapter is
about sex and sexuality in organizations. Sexual behaviour in
organizations is pervasive but is rarely discussed in OB textbooks.
This chapter describes the masculine and heterosexual business
environment and examines the issues of work romances and sexual
harassment. The text provides numerous learning aids (including
discussion topics and chapter questions) to assist both the
lecturer and the student.
