Coping With the Corporate Tribe: How Women in Different Cultures Experience the Managerial Role
基于对法国和加拿大46名职业女性和21名白手起家女性的深度访谈，研究女性如何感知、体验和应对企业部落的入门仪式（进入、建立信誉和管理性别身份），并讨论个体应对策略和组织变革建议。
This article explores the ways in which women perceive, experience, and cope with the initiation rites of the corporate tribe (gaining entry, establishing credibility, and managing gender identity). The analysis is based on intensive interviews with managerial women (46 professionals and 21 self-made women) employed in a variety of industries in France and Canada. The rites these women experience transcend cultural boundaries and national frontiers. They are encountered by both professionals and self-made women, although some differences between the two groups are found. The analysis describes the process of incorporating women into management and brings to light problems for women and dilemmas for organizations. Individual coping strategies and suggestions for organizational change are discussed.
