Women at WorkforceAs the graph’s short remark shows, most industries have men as a majority of their chief executives. This general pattern of gender proportion at managerial level can be explained by role conflict, gender stereotype or norms associated with a gender and lastly by the influence of informal communication channels on power politics within an organization. Then I will focus more specifically on differences among industries for female executives’ percentage, significantly lower in manufacturing or engineering sectors than nonprofit or healthcare sectors.
Firstly, likewise anyone in a professional world, women are expected to behave in a certain pattern for their personal and professional position. A chief executive can be at the same time a mother of three children, and these different roles can conflict one another during execution. The social perception of roles at household and their conflict with roles at work stand out more for women rather than men. According to OECD, whereas all OECD countries except for the United States provide paid maternity leave, only half of them offer paternity leave, with fewer days off.
The role perception based on one’s gender can determine also one’s communication methods. If a gender stereotype functions as a norm within an organization, it creates a desirable behavior which is considered to be consistent with a role. When Marie Antoinette did not conform to what is supposed to be right behavior for her role as a queen, given from the organization she belonged to, she had to face the loss of her position. If women are considered to be less directive and more compassionate, this would influence the conformity of people in the organization when she exhibited strong assertiveness, contradictory from the given role expectation. Therefore, her chance to get a higher status with power would be lowered.

[quote=DuckGrowDuck]You know who’s going to be so upset when he/she’s upset that the world gets turned upside down?
[quote=Korra]I don’t see how the media has any idea or control over whether or not people are “reacting like that.” If they are, then if what the audience thinks is correct, people will start reacting too. If people think it’s a joke, then they won’t.

‏@Korra: If that gets any closer, the problem will be solved. The best defense of this point is a change of paradigm, where people are simply more aware, more responsible in choosing which way to behave. I mean, the “ditch the change” mentality seems an oxymoron.
[/quote=Korra]You can use those new words, but if you don’t use them now, you may start putting them in reverse order. If that’s a strategy that’s working, I’m not sure how things can get any better. (Especially since there’s already an obvious conflict of opinion: when things are changing in an organization, you need to decide which to make.)
[quote=JotM]But of course those people that get pissed off might be the only ones who have the right attitude towards her from the right time. If it is important, for example, that her actions be “right,” then you would hope that people around her would be more open and willing to look at things like “he was wrong” (or else it would take him a while to accept that it was bad and wrong). There might also be people who are angry at her and think she had a ‘hug.'”
[quote=MandyD]@MandyD This is just one of those questions that many people can answer. Not everyone’s answers will fit exactly on every facet of their problem. (Well, that and the fact that people may be more open when you ask the wrong questions, like “What was the problem?”) This is where I find myself. If they’re able to look at situations in the context of all of I have experience with, it’s possible to get some helpful guidance.
I’ll respond to that question with an answer, but be careful when dealing with the audience. I really like these issues in terms of their presentation, what I hear, and how I engage with them. But this is mostly about what I believe in. The audience is very diverse, and they tend to be more tolerant of criticism. Being able to engage with them and how they talk to them allows me to
