内容説明

For courses in Women in Business and Women in Management courses. Offering valuable insight and expertise from a wide range of contributing authors, this progressive and informative study offers a candid examination of women and the barriers they face as they enter the 21st Century workforce environment-providing students with a foundation for exploring the "glass ceiling," analyzing women's experiences in the workplace, and identifying strategies for managing successful career. Sharing the personal struggles and achievements of some of today's most inspiring and powerful professional women business leaders, it addresses numerous issues, including the inequity that characterizes many work environments, the challenges confronting women in their quest for advancement, and the reality that women's abilities and experiences bring a unique addition to the organizational workforce in the new millennium and beyond.
