The issue of gender in organizations has attracted much attention
and debate over a number of years. The focus of examination is
inequality of opportunity between the genders and the impact this
has on organizations, individual men and women, and society as a
whole. It is undoubtedly the case that progress has been made with
women participating in organizational life in greater numbers and
at more senior levels than has been historically the case,
challenging notions that senior and/or influential organizational
and political roles remain a masculine domain. The Oxford Handbook
of Gender in Organizations is a comprehensive analysis of thinking
and research on gender in organizations with original contributions
from key international scholars in the field. The Handbook
comprises four sections. The first looks at the theoretical roots
and potential for theoretical development in respect of the topic
of gender in organizations. The second section focuses on
leadership and management and the gender issues arising in this
field; contributors review the extensive literature and reflect on
progress made as well as commenting on hurdles yet to be overcome.
The third section considers the gendered nature of careers. Here
the focus is on querying traditional approaches to career,
surfacing embedded assumptions within traditional approaches, and
assessing potential for alternative patterns to evolve, taking into
account the nature of women's lives and the changing nature of
organizations. In its final section the Handbook examines
masculinity in organizations to assess the diversity of
masculinities evident within organizations and the challenges posed
to those outside the norm. In bringing together a broad range of
research and thinking on gender in organizations across a number of
disciplines, sub-disciplines, and conceptual perspectives, the
Handbook provides a comprehensive view of both contemporary
thinking and future research directions.
