This timely Handbook of Research Methods on Gender and Management
exemplifies the multiplicity of gender and management research and
provides effective guidance for putting methods into practice.
Through a range of international perspectives, contributors present
an essential resource of diverse research methods, including
illustrative examples from corporate, public and entrepreneurial
sectors. Chapters offer clear guidance, considering opportunities
and challenges of differing approaches to research and exploring
their ethical implications in practice. Outlining
autoethnographical, practical, critical and methodological
approaches to research, the Handbook illustrates a broad base from
which to build a research project in gender and management. This
cutting-edge Handbook is crucial reading for scholars of gender and
management, highlighting useful methods and practices for accessing
key scholarly insights. It will also benefit graduate students in
need of a guided entry into the field of gender and management.

Gender, Media, and Organization: Challenging Mis(s)Representations
of Women Leaders and Managers is the fourth volume in the Women and
Leadership: Research, Theory, and Practice series. This
cross?disciplinary series from the International Leadership
Association draws from current research findings, development
practices, pedagogy, and lived experience to deliver provocative
thinking that enhances leadership knowledge and improves leadership
development of women around the world. This volume addresses the
lack of critical attention in leadership research to how women
leaders and professionals are represented in the media. The volume
acts as a companion piece to a Seminar Series, funded by the UK's
Economic and Social Sciences Research Council (ESRC), to address
this gap in the research. The lack of research interrogation of
gendered media representations of women leaders and professionals
is a surprising omission given the wealth of evidence from
stakeholders outside academia revealing that women, and women
leaders, continue to be underrepresented across all forms of media
outlet. This volume contributes to social change, equality, and
economic performance by raising consciousness about women's lack of
representation in the media and challenges gendered
mis(s)representations of women professionals and leaders in the
media through the presentation of a range of empirical
investigations and methodological approaches. The volume
contributors use various theories and conceptualizations to
problematize and analyze women's limited representation in the
media, and the gendered representations of women professionals and
leaders. Together, the volume's 14 chapters reflect the beginning
of a rich, diverse, emergent strand of academic research that
interrogates relationships between the media in its multiple forms
and women's leadership. Illuminating the positioning of women
leaders and professionals as both complex and problematic, these
chapters offer an important agenda for management and organization
scholars. They attest to the need to describe and make visible
women's mis(s)representations in the media while drawing attention
to the importance of situating these mis(s) representations in the
broader social, economic, historical, cultural, and political
context as a means to gain insight into their development and
evolution. As a rich and diverse site of research, examination of
the media calls for a broad methodological repertoire. The chapters
in this book draw from multiple sources and include, among others,
the development of thematic analysis to illuminate stereotypes, the
use of critical discourse analysis to understand professional
women's experience, a rhetorical analysis of the covers of Time
magazine, and an interrogation of the power dynamics manifested in
the media's practice of nicknaming women leaders. Gender, Media,
and Organization is a first step in stimulating further research
that poses critical questions concerning gendered and sexualized
representations of women leaders in textual and visual forms, and
considers the media's influence on gender equality and social
justice. The chapters offer fruitful avenues for future research to
continue the momentum of challenging gendered media representations
of women leaders and professionals.
