FEMINIZATION UNVEILED: MANAGEMENT QUALITIES IN CONTEMPORARY WRITINGS
分析当代管理写作中如何出现与女性文化相关的品质,揭示这些文本向管理者传播女性化理念的机制,并从女性声音和后结构主义视角讨论这种未命名的“女性化”现象。
Qualities that are culturally associated with females are appearing in descriptions of managerial work in the texts of contemporary writers, and these texts function as carriers of a feminine ethos to practicing managers. The article describes a mechanism—management writings—used to disseminate and legitimate a management idea. It examines the nature of the rhetoric used in management writings and the implication of authors' failure to label the idea by its name: feminization. This “feminization” is discussed from both women's voice and poststructuralist perspectives. Implications for management theorizing and future research are described.
