Description

Despite real progress, women remain rare enough in elite positions of power that their presence still evokes a sense of wonder. In Through the Labyrinth, Alice Eagly and Linda Carli examine why women’s paths to power remain difficult to traverse. First, Eagly and Carli prove that the glass ceiling is no longer a useful metaphor and offer seven reasons why. They propose the labyrinth as a better image and provide an explanation for navigate through it. This important and practical book addresses such critical questions as: How far have women in truth come as leaders? Do stereotypes and prejudices still limit women’s opportunities? Do people face up to women’s leadership more than men’s? And, do organisations create obstacles to women who would be leaders?This book’s wealthy analysis is founded on scientific research from psychology, economics, sociology, political science, and management. The authors ground their conclusions in that research and invoke a wealth of engaging anecdotes and personal accounts to illustrate the practical principles that emerge. With excellent leadership in short supply, no group, organisation, or nation can have enough money to restrict women’s get right of entry to to leadership roles. This book evaluates whether such restrictions are present and, when they’re, what we will do to do away with them.
