Existent literature has identified the existence of some
differences between men and women entrepreneurs in terms of
propensity to innovation, approach to creativity, decision making,
resilience, and co-creation. Without properly examining the current
inequalities in social-economic structures, it is difficult to
examine the results of corporate female leadership. The Handbook of
Research on Women in Management and the Global Labor Market is a
pivotal reference source that examines the point of convergence
among entrepreneurship organizations, relationship, creativity, and
culture from a gender perspective, and researches the relation
between current inequalities in social-economic structures and
organizations in the labor market, education and individual skills,
wages, work performance, promotion, and mobility. While
highlighting topics such as gender gap, woman empowerment, and
gender inequality, this publication is ideally designed for
managers, government officials, policymakers, academicians,
practitioners, and students.
This volume presents current research on gender studies in the
specific context of the knowledge economy. Featuring contributions
from the 2017 Annual Ipazia, the Scientific Observatory for Gender
Studies Workshop on Gender, this book investigates gender issues
and female entrepreneurship from social, economic, corporate,
organizational, and management perspectives, with particular
emphasis on advancing the understanding of gender in business and
economic research. The post-industrial knowledge economy is
characterized by an emphasis on human capital as the real engine of
sustainable growth and development. With women comprising an
increasing share of the global workforce, gender studies play a
central role in exploring and understanding the attitudes and
skills of women in business and their impact on economic and social
development. Gender inequality in public and private contexts is
decreasing due to an increase of women in leadership roles in
business, the expansion and diversity of females in education, and
a larger presence of women in policymaking roles. Ipazia, the
Scientific Observatory for Gender Studies, aims to define an
updated framework of research, service and projects on women and
gender relations to highlight the evolution of gender in business
and economics. This volume features contributions on female-owned
family business, gender diversity in organizations, gender capital,
and immigration from the 2017 Ipazia workshop.

This edited volume analyzes how the COVID-19 crisis could be
transformed into opportunities for those organizations that
correctly interpret the change, adapt their strategies accordingly,
and increase their chances of success in a post-pandemic scenario.
Through this lens, the female role and contribution to recovery are
analyzed and discussed in the economic, financial and social
context.Even if many aspects set the COVID-19 crisis apart from the
latest global financial crises - such as the unusual shutdown of
businesses in specific sectors, social distancing regulations, and
general uncertainty sparked by the pandemic - the challenges facing
all organizations in the current recovery phase can present an
opportunity for extraordinary growth and development in Europe. The
focus of the contributions gathered here is not on "counting" the
damages and losses but rather on monitoring the recovery and on
emerging instruments to support national and global economic
recovery, while paying special attention to women's role in it.
In today's climate, academics, professional community and policy
makers all have input in critical gender issues, as well as in the
entrepreneurship and human capital issues. Various gender issues
are published involving many scientific fields, including business,
management and accounting research. Presenting the topic of gender
issues, entrepreneurship and human capital, this book collects the
main output of the researches presented at the Annual Workshop of
IPAZIA 2019 of Rome in Italy. The authors provide a renewed and
fruitful analysis of these topics, with the purpose of advancing
the gender theories in the international context.
The economic, health, and political crises, as well as the rise of
the digital age, have changed and complicated the way in which
people, companies, and regions function. The goal is not just
survival, but also to innovate and organize themselves to chart new
paths for growth and development. This book uses this premise to
understand how organizations, in particular female-led businesses,
work on their resilience using specific activities and relational
capital as a driver of strategic value. The chapters include
theoretical as well as practical contributions about how
female-owned and female-run companies and organizations can take
advantage of such opportunities, in terms of challenges, issues,
tools, facilitators, and mechanisms that can support the use of the
new opportunities in the near future.
