Exploring the Influence of Gender on Managerial Work in a Thansitional, Eastern European Nation
调查了匈牙利不同层级和行业的管理者,发现性别对工作信念、价值观和态度没有影响,而职位和行业则有显著影响,挑战了西方研究中的性别中心假设。
Prior studies of women in management have been conducted primarily from a Western, industrialized, and Anglo-American perspective. Therefore, their findings may not apply to other sociopolitical domains, such as those in transition to market-based economies. This study surveyed Hungarian managers at two different organizational ranks and employed in three different sectors of the economy. Contrary to the "gender-centered" hypothesis, managers' gender did not influence their work-related beliefs, values, or attitudes. However, as suggested by the "situational" hypothesis, the variables of rank and sector had a strong effect on outcomes.
