Women in process manufacturing industries: Factors shaping careers in management

Description

In the extensive literature search investigating the position of women in management and leadership in the workforce, there is consistent evidence of the way structures, practices, beliefs, values and attitudes continue to account for the problem of gender equity in the workforce. Much of the literature to date has, therefore, documented the considerable barriers to women's success in workplace cultures and environments. The emphasis in this study is on identifying the factors that currently shape the career success of women in process manufacturing.
