The Business of Being a Woman

Routledge Studies in Management, Organizations and Society

Entrepreneurship can be read as a cultural and economic phenomenon. In recent times, gender has become an increasing influence on entrepreneurship. This groundbreaking new study considers both gender and entrepreneurship as symbolic forms, looking at their diverse patterns and social representation. Presenting an ethnographic study of the gender structuring of entrepreneurship, this work employs three strategies:
A critical survey of gender studies which argues that entrepreneurship is a cultural model of masculinity that obstructs the expression of other models;
'Reflexive' ethnographic observation conducted in five small firms which describes how business cultures are 'gendered' and how gender is the product of a social practice;
An analysis of how discursive and narrative practices in business cultures constitute gender and entrepreneurship.

Gender and Entrepreneurship

Economics as Social Theory

The contributions to this volume draw on the body of postcolonial studies to critique both orthodox and heterodox economics. The book addresses a large gap in postcolonial studies, which lacks the type of sophisticated analysis of economic questions that it displays in its analysis of culture.

The wide array of contributions to this book draws on the rapidly growing body of post-colonial studies to critique both orthodox and heterodox economics.

Postcolonialism Meets Economics

Routledge Focus on Business and Management

Government and organisational policies are not enough to challenge socially constructed expectations towards gender. Arts based methods derived from sensemaking, metaphors and storytelling can support women in modifying behaviours triggered by gender stereotype threat and help them cope better in the gendered workplace.

The aim of the book is to challenge the contemporary approach of mainstreaming gender in organisations. Starting with individuals' life stories and workplace experiences to understand the common challenges for individuals and organisations, the authors review how women respond to those challenges through strategic choice, and consequences both for the individual and the organisational impact. This book presents two types of arts inspired workshops: sensory and metaphorical engagement as well as storytelling theatre. 

Gender Bias in Organisations: From the Arts to Individualised Coaching discusses how gender mainstreaming initiatives have failed and proposes an individualised coaching approach based on arts-based methodology for mediating gender stereotype in the workplace. It will be of interest to researchers, academics, and students in the areas of gender, work and organisation.

Gender Bias in Organisations

In "Women and Economics," Charlotte Perkins Gilman explores the intricate relationship between gender and the economic structures of society at the turn of the 20th century. This groundbreaking work deftly combines sociological analysis with feminist ideology, as Gilman critiques the traditional domestic sphere that restricts women's economic independence. Employing a clear, persuasive prose style, she argues for the necessity of women'Äôs participation in the workforce, positing that their economic autonomy is essential for societal progress. As a pivotal text in the lens of feminist economics, it challenges prevailing notions of womanhood and advocates for a redefinition of women's roles beyond mere homemakers. Charlotte Perkins Gilman was influenced by her own experiences of social and economic confinement; her divorce and subsequent advocacy for women's rights fueled her passion for reform. Educated in a progressive environment, Gilman had firsthand knowledge of the limitations imposed on women, which led her to seek a deeper understanding of the socio-economic factors that oppressed them. Her innovative writings were informed by her earlier works, including her influential short story, "The Yellow Wallpaper," making her a prominent voice in early feminist literature. "Women and Economics" is an essential read for anyone interested in the intersection of gender and economic theory. Gilman's incisive analysis remains relevant, encouraging modern readers to reconsider the channels through which gender inequality persists. Her thought-provoking arguments not only enrich our understanding of historical contexts but also inspire future dialogue on women'Äôs rights and economic empowerment.

Empowering Women Through Economic Independence and Gender Equality

WOMEN & ECONOMICS

Gender and Organizational Theory

Written by leading researchers from four continents, this book offers a broad and contemporary assessment of the ways in which gender affects workplace communication and how this in turn influences people's choices, training, opportunities and career development. A range of work situations are considered (including communication within the normal routine, in a crisis or under pressure, and during those occasions important for career development) and examples are sourced from a variety of contexts (including international business, leadership, service work, and computer-mediated communication). Gender and Communication at Work includes a diversity of theoretical perspectives in order to most successfully map the range of communication strategies, identities and roles which impact upon and are influenced by gender at work.

An up-to-date review of theory and research on how gender affects communication at work, it considers ’new’ workplaces such as e-business and non-managerial work as well as cross-cultural dimensions and service sector work. The book encompasses a wide geographic perspective with research findings on a variety of business cultures.

Gender and Communication at Work

"The History of the Standard Oil Company" is an exposé about the Standard Oil Company, run by oil tycoon John D. Rockefeller, the richest figure in American history. The inspiration behind this book was largely fueled by author's childhood experiences. Her father worked for Standard Oil and lived through what she called "hate, suspicion, and fear that engulfed the community." As a direct witness to the schemes and horizontal integration of John D. Rockefeller and his associates, Ida Tarbell began building the foundations of "The History of the Standard Oil Company" early on, using her own discontent as a starting point. This book inspired many other journalists to write about trusts and large businesses that attempted to gain monopolies in various industries.

The Exposure of Immoral and Illegal Business of John D. Rockefeller, the Richest Figure in American History

The History of the Standard Oil Company (Illustrated)

Not until 1997 did a female become chief executive officer of a Fortune 500 corporation (Jill Barad, at Mattel Toy Co. Women's progress since that time has been in fits and starts, exceedingly slow. The number of women CEOs reached 4 in 1999 only to slide back to 2 in 2001. Meanwhile, while not reaching anything approaching parity, women made significant strides in politics (as senators, cabinet secretaries and governors), in not-for-profit spheres (as CEOs of health care and hospital organizations or of United Way chapters, with budgets of billions of dollars), and at colleges and universities (23 % have female presidents or chancellors). Currently, 3%, or 15, of Fortune 500 CEOs are women.

After examining in detail the educations, career progressions, pronouncements and observations, as well as family lives, of the 19 women who have risen to the top (sitting and former CEOs), this book asks, and attempts to answer, two questions:

Why haven't more women reached the CEO suite?How might women in business better position themselves to ascend to the pinnacle?

The Last Male Bastion

The Last Male Bastion is the first systematic approach to the subject why, proportionately, so few women occupy seats of power in today's public companies. The book examines (1) a well-defined group (not random); (2) defined by the single most important criteria, success; (3) with success defined in one and only one way, as promotion to CEO of a Fortune 500 corporation. The book examines carefully the careers and experiences of 19 women who actually have "made it," female CEOs who have been (beyond peradventure) successful.

In this book, Tony Lawson advocates a relignment of economics with social reality - placing ontology at the heart of a discipline integrated within the wider human and social sciences.

Reorienting Economics

Traces the origins of the segregation between women's and men's work in the 19th and 20th century. It rejects the idea that women were mainly employed as unskilled labour, asserting that women's skills were required but that historical records and social definitions of skill have denied this.
