How do women make career choices? What difference does cultural or
economic background make for a woman's career development? How do
women's and men's career development patterns compare? In Diversity
and Women's Career Development, Helen S. Farmer and her associates
present a variety of perspectives on career development for women.
Their analysis and discussion grow out of an extensive study that
looked at high school students in 1980, and then followed up with
them in 1990 and 1993. The data provide glimpses into influences on
women's life choices and motivation, goals and obstacles to
reaching them, and comparisons of women's and men's career
development patterns. They also offer insights into differences
among ethnic and socioeconomic groups, as well as the influence of
family on career development. Using the rich, longitudinal
quantitative and qualitative data from this study, the authors
examine issues surrounding women's career development, specifically
focusing on motivation and persistence among women in particular
career paths, and among diverse groups of women. The authors also
allow the subjects of the study to speak in their own voices,
illustrating vividly the personal processes involved in their
career decision-making. This book will expand and enrich the work
of anyone interested in women's careers, the impact of ethnicity
and family on career development, and how girls and young women
approach making life choices. Human resource development
professionals will also find it useful and illuminating.
