Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thesis investigates the perceptions toward women who are holding a managerial position in Lebanon. It studies women's status in managerial positions in Lebanon, and people's perspectives and expectations toward women-managers; it examines whether stereotypes are developing barriers and constraints for women to reach a managerial position, and it analyzes the difference between each gender's attitudes and their opinions about women-managers' ability to handle such a position through evaluating their performance. The thesis was based upon statistics and a survey that is implemented and conducted inside Lebanon. The survey that was in form of questionnaires included more than 300 participants of both genders iside Lebanon. the research indicated that stereotypes are not the main barrier for the advancement of women into managerial positions in Lebanon, and attitudes towards women managers in Lebanon are relatively positive oppositely to what is found in literature. It also proved that there is a difference in perceptions, attitudes, and expectations, towards women-managers, between both genders.

Download or read book Women in Management Worldwide written by Ronald J Burke and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-02-17 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Excellent', 'Outstanding' and 'Inspirational' were words used to describe the highly acclaimed and award winning first edition of Women in Management Worldwide. Edited by two of the world's most eminent researchers into the role of women in work and management, their findings from around the world confirmed that the glass ceiling was still firmly in place, and there were few women directors or CEOs of large corporations, indeed few in any posts at the top level of private sector organizations. For the second edition of Women in Management Worldwide: Progress and Prospects, Professors Davidson and Burke have assembled over 30 experts replete with facts, figures and analysis, to ensure this expanded and updated edition provides a genuinely cross-cultural global assessment of women in management. This important book examines what has and has not changed, and provides evidence that an understanding of the values, norms and cultural issues bearing on the progress or otherwise of women in organizations is becoming ever more necessary. There is a looming crisis in organizational leadership, with demographic factors and globalization leading to an international talent war. Against that background, continuing bias against women seeking leadership responsibilities means organizations are failing to develop available talent, and when corporations experience economic difficulties the consequences bear disproportionately on women managers. With findings from a broader and more representative range of countries, the editors have arranged this second edition country by country to enable comparisons of the data both between countries and regions and between past, present, and likely futures. Researchers, policy makers, legislators and officials needing an understanding of women's status and progress, as well as those teaching or studying international, cross-cultural and human resources management will need to read this book.

Book excerpt: This report provides an up-to-date, holistic reference on the state of women in Lebanon against the broader perspective of general development outcomes while taking into consideration the multiple crises the country is facing. The report presents a data-driven analysis of three key dimensions of gender equality: economic opportunities (including livelihoods), human capital accumulation and agency, and includes a discussion of contextual factors related to institutions and the market underpinning all three dimensions. Specific challenges that refugee women and girls face are also covered and, where data is available and relevant, the report discusses the impacts of the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic. Based on the thorough assessment, three priority areas for action to address gender gaps and promote women's empowerment are identified: i) policies & programs: supporting policies and programs that boost women’s employment and entrepreneurship towards a more equal 'future of work' economy, ii) collaboration: engaging with a diverse set of actors to capitalize on momentum for change towards gender equality, and iii) knowledge: unpacking data to strengthen the impacts of reforms and service delivery benefits to women.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thirty years after the end of the civil war, Lebanese women are still struggling for gender equality. This study builds on recent scholarship on women’s activism in the Arab world, in the context of the Arab Spring. It examines how discourses of secularism and equal civil rights have informed the contemporary Lebanese women’s movement in their campaigns for a domestic violence law, women’s nationality rights, a women’s quota in parliament, the reform of personal status law and the recognition of civil marriage. This book argues that women are caught between sect and nation, due to Lebanon’s plural legal system, which makes a division between religious and civil law. While both jurisdictions allocate women relational rights, guided by the logic of patrilineal descent, women’s inequality is central to the reproduction of sectarian difference and patriarchal control within the confessional political system, as a whole.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research project measures women's opinions on the barriers they face or perceive under organizational culture and practices. In addition, it assesses th eir views on the role of family and other sources of support in their ability to manage th eir double role. This project also includes a section on corporate governance and women in order to assess on the one hand, how does women?s participation on boards result s in better corporate governance practices and on the other hand, how do better corpo rate governance practices help improve the status of women in the workplace? The findings included several behaviors and practices that were regarded as barriers to the advancement of women in the workplace; however, the majority of the respondents had positive working experiences and they were satisfied with their current working circumstances. The majority of the respondents also agreed that the participation of women will result in better board performances and will have a positive impact on wome n at work. However, it is important to note that women's opinions on most of the above mentioned issues varied by their level of management. Top women managers were more self confident and faced fewer barriers than middle managers.

This book was released on 2016-01-12 with total page 683 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in paperback for the first time, the Handbook is an academic adaptation of information contained in the Global Report on the Status of Women in News Media, a study commissioned by the International Women's Media Foundation. The book's editor was the principal investigator of the original study. This text draws together the most robust data from that original study, presenting it in 29 chapters on individual nations and three additional theoretical chapters. The book is the most expansive effort to date to consider women's standing in the journalism profession across the world. Contents organize nations in relation to their progress within newsrooms, with those most advanced in gender equality representing diversity in terms of region and national development. Contributing authors are, in most cases, the original researchers for their respective nations in the Global Report study.

Book excerpt: My purpose is to examine the status of Lebanese women in relation to their social, economic, political and family duties and to ascertain how they feel about their roles. Using research and the case study method, I hope to delineate the area and extent of traditionalist influence. Personal testimony as well as other views reflected by the Personal Status Laws, political parties, and male employers will further clarify the definition of women's status, limitations and potential. I will examine, as well, modern legal documents (the UN Charter and the Lebanese Constitution) which encourage changes in women's traditional role. The possibility of lessening the influence of the Personal Status Laws and of a general long-term increase in non-traditionalist factors affecting women's roles will also be examined. Impediments to these developments will be discussed in the literature review section. Although the Lebanese female participates actively in all major fields of society( the influence of the patriarchal society and the preponderance of male authority tend to nullify the effect of any progress in female emancipation. While some progress has been made in bringing women out of the traditionalist ghetto, getting rid of some of these rigid practices will be more difficult because they originate in customary religious practice rather than strictly social indoctrination. The more Lebanese society looks upon women as positive role players, the more obsolete and traditional ideas will lose their force. In other words, intrinsic social change is clearly more effective than revolutionary change induced by women themselves. This thesis will attempt to evaluate the negative forces that obstruct change, either in traditional Lebanese society or in the status of its women. I hope to make clear the roles imposed by the various religious sects on women's participation in the development of their country.

WomenOs rights in each country are assessed in five key areas: (1) Nondiscrimination and Access to Justice; (2) Autonomy, Security, and Freedom of the Person; (3) Economic Rights and Equal Opportunity; (4) Political Rights and Civic Voice; and (5) Social and Cultural Rights. The methodology is based on the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the study results are presented through a set of numerical scores and analytical narrative reports.
