    Open AccessGlenice J WoodARTICLEWomen in Management Review2006

    Purpose The current study followed up middle managers who had participated in a survey on attitudes to promotion in 1996. The vast majority of the original sample had responded favourably to the question: “Do you want to obtain a senior management position during your managerial career?” In addition, respondents were asked “How confident are you that this will happen?” and “How soon do you feel this will happen?” The aim of this follow up qualita…

  • Childlessness and Women Managers

    Open AccessGlenice J Wood, Janice NewtonARTICLEGender Work and Organization2006Cited by: 14References: 8

    Childlessness is increasing and might reflect acceptance of diversity, scope for individual choice, and a creative 'social imaginary' about being feminine without being a mother. Childlessness also appears to have a contextual manifestation arising from the recognition that the long hours work culture in many organizations does not support appropriate parenting. A qualitative study of Australian managers reveals the contradictory discourses of ch…

  • What does it take to get to the top

    Open AccessGlenice J Wood, Glenice WoodARTICLEWomen in Management Review2003

    Women constitute only approximately 3‐5 per cent of Australian senior managers. One possible explanation of their failure to enter senior management in greater numbers is that women in management may have differing perceptions of the necessary prerequisites for promotion to senior roles. This study explored this possibility with 351 male and 156 female Australian middle managers, whose views were contrasted with senior managers’ perceptions. Gend…

There is a strong theme of family and person…

  • Sex differences in explanations for career progress

    Open AccessGlenice J Wood, Margaret LindorffARTICLEWomen in Management Review2001

    Tests the prediction that there will be sex differences in how middle managers perceive promotion requirements, and that such differences will be influenced by societal expectations of gender appropriateness, in which women are expected to display communal (nurturing, interpersonally sensitive) and men agentic (independent, assertive and ambitious) qualities and behaviour. Results from 351 male and 156 female managers indicated that sex does not …
