Empowerment and Managerial Labor Strategies
Hopes that senior managers attach to programs of empowerment are often dashed in practice.

Delayering Managers
This article seeks to extend the growing interest in time-space issues within social and organizational theory (Giddens, 1984, 1987; Harvey, 1990) by focusing on management and gender in the workplace.

Presents case studies which outline how sexual harassment can be mismanaged both by professional managers and by trade union representatives
