Download or read book A Woman's Place? written by C. S. Cowles and published by Beacon Hill Press. This book was released on 1993-04-01 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Women have achieved relative parity with men in virtually every area of society--except the church,' writes C.S. Cowles, challenging the long-held practice and belief that a Christian woman's place is in the pew but not in the pulpit, lectern, boardroom, or other places of leadership. Through a careful study of key biblical texts, Cowles refutes what he terms the church's 'institutional discrimination against women' and calls for it to open leadership positions to 'whomever the Holy Spirit should call and whomever evidences gifts for public ministry, without regard to race, social class, or gender.' 'It is time for the church to discover the richness, beauty, and spiritual power that can be released only through the full expression of women's unique gifts and special sensitivities.'
Book Synopsis A Woman’s Place is in the Boardroom by : Peninah Thomson
Download or read book A Woman’s Place is in the Boardroom written by Peninah Thomson and published by Palgrave MacMillan. This book was released on 2008-06-13 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Woman's Place is in the Boardroom was the first step on a journey. This book is the second. In the three years since the first book was published, the authors have become even more convinced that the general problem, the absence of women from top strategic decision-making bodies, is among the most important problems of our time. They suggested, in the Preface to the earlier book, that "the problems that face our world are so complex and difficult that we will need all the talent available to solve them". There can be no doubt that some progress has been made, in terms of women gaining access to strategic decision-making bodies, but nor can there be much doubt that the complexity and difficulty of the global issues and problems that they and their fellow board members face have also increased. Thanks to their continued involvement in the FTSE 100 Cross-Company Mentoring Programme, the authors have learned a great deal since the first publication and developed some new ideas, including a useful matrix of the essential elements involved in women becoming successful candidates for board level positions. Contained in this book is the extended "how to" derived from what they've learned - the "Roadmap". It sets out the route that women executives who want to improve their chances of being appointed to boards should follow, and identifies the signs to note along the way. The book will also be useful to companies wishing to appoint more female directors. More women on the boards of our large companies isn't going to solve global problems at a stroke, but it will contribute to their solution, by increasing the reservoirs of human ingenuity, imagination, insight and will available to address them. In the final analysis, the authors think, it's what you do with power and influence that matters.--Résumé de l'éditeur.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a book businesswomen can rally around and use as a manual, an expert in female board representation shows what it takes to get nominated to a corporate board and become a productive and respected member. This book blazes a trail. Rather than focusing on lack of opportunity or loudly calling for the appointment of more women to boards, it simply shows women what they can do to get on boards. In its pages, businesswomen will gain refreshing insights into the many opportunities that exist for them to rise to leadership. The result of two years' research and interviews, the book identifies specific steps a woman can take to become qualified and competent to serve at the very top—as a director on a for-profit corporate board. Arguing that women need to "learn from the leaders, " the author lets 15 female directors tell the truth about how to find a seat at the table. Each story is different; no one path or decision worked for every woman. Their advice closes each chapter, providing encouragement and perspective from over three decades of practical experience with public company boards.

Book Synopsis A Woman's Place Is in the Brewhouse by : Tara Nurin
Download or read book A Woman's Place Is in the Brewhouse written by Tara Nurin and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2021-09-21 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: • North American Guild of Beer Writers Best Book 2022 Dismiss the stereotype of the bearded brewer. It's women, not men, who've brewed beer throughout most of human history. Their role as family and village brewer lasted for hundreds of thousands of years—through the earliest days of Mesopotamian civilization, the reign of Cleopatra, the witch trials of early modern Europe, and the settling of colonial America. A Woman's Place Is in the Brewhouse celebrates the contributions and influence of female brewers and explores the forces that have erased them from the brewing world. It's a history that's simultaneously inspiring and demeaning. Wherever and whenever the cottage brewing industry has grown profitable, politics, religion, and capitalism have grown greedy. On a macro scale, men have repeatedly seized control and forced women out of the business. Other times, women have simply lost the minimal independence, respect, and economic power brewing brought them. But there are more breweries now than at any time in American history and today women serve as founder, CEO, or head brewer at more than one thousand of them. As women continue to work hard for equal treatment and recognition in the industry, author Tara Nurin shows readers that women have been—and are once again becoming—relevant in the brewing world.
