The book explores workplace barriers, as well as the organizational knowledge and communication strategies required to navigate the labyrinth successfully to achieve one s goals. With a blend of theory and practice, the book: argues for a new organizational model where gender difference is recognized and respected, rather than ignored encourages a shift in how women are viewed in the workplace equips women with the knowledge and skills they need to meet the challenges they face in the workplace Incorporating both case studies and exercises, this book encourages students to think about the issues at hand, and to develop the skills necessary to empower themselves and the women in their organizations to shape their careers. Students in organizational behavior or gender studies courses will find this book a valuable resource."
