Using a Paradox Approach to Explore Work–Nonwork Issues
The interface between work and nonwork domains is often presented as dilemmas, that is, ‘either/or’ decisions involving mutually exclusive choices where individuals must prioritize one option over the other. We propose a values-based paradox approach that conceptualizes work–nonwork issues through a ‘both/and’ lens, that is, a lens that allows individuals to see two seemingly opposing beliefs or approaches to both be true and beneficial. Focusing…
The making of female politicians
What makes female candidates for political office persist in their quest? Using self-determination and casual agency theories, we hypothesize that female candidates for public office need to construct and maintain a political identity in their quest for office. Through interviews, we explore the narratives of 35 women who ran for public office at the state and local levels in the United States. Half of the women persisted to the end of the race, …
The Role of Goal Specificity in the Relationship Between Leadership and Empowerment
Although there has been much recent attention to empowerment in public sector research, most of this research focuses on structural empowerment, rather than psychological empowerment, and thus focuses on management practices, rather than on employees’ motivational states. This article examines the processes through which transformational leadership and transactional leadership affect employees’ feelings of psychological empowerment, focusing spec…
The influence of societal and organizational culture on the use of work-life balance programs
This research examines data from in-depth interviews with professional women in the U.S. and Korea to explore the underuse of work-life balance programs (WLBPs) in these two countries. Using thematic analysis, the study examines these women's perceptions of the influence of societal and organizational culture on their WLBP use. It also examines their beliefs that work-nonwork balance is achievable [labelled work-nonwork self-efficacy (WNSE)] as w…
Becoming a Manager
This article explores how newly promoted managers develop emotional and social competencies to understand their and others’ emotions and then use this understanding for personal growth and in their interactions with others. This study draws on five waves of semistructured interview data collected from 16 newly promoted managers in a large northeastern state agency. The findings suggest that new managers undergo a developmental process— role exit,…
Erosion and transformation in the ecology of gender
Previous literature on women's representation in the Ugandan Parliament painted a grim picture of women exploited by political leaders, and brought into Parliament and other political spaces by a benevolent dictator who allowed their entry to extend and deepen his political networks. These women were expected to accept a subordinate and inferior place, and to defer to male authority. Female members cooperated dutifully by 'knowing their place' an…
Shared Regulation in the United States Securities Industry
The processes determining regulatory impacts are increasingly centered within firms and industries themselves, and in the working relationships among private and public actors. This article examines two aspects of this issue: (a) the effects of economic interdependence on the social control of industry and (b) the emergence and behavior of regulatory professions within the private sector and their collaboration with public regulatory counterparts…
Bridging Management Practice and Theory
Skill-based learning' has become an increasingly important topic in management education (Walter and Marks, 1985). Conferences are being devoted to the topic, skill-oriented textbooks are appearing, and an increasing number of traditional courses are being modified. In the typical management school, however, one seldom sees an overall, skill-based curriculum or even a curriculum which is balanced between traditional and skill-based approaches. Ty…
