Produktinformationen zu „Paula Principle (ePub)“
An expert on innovation and work argues that many highly capable women are not being recognised, and that this harms businesses, societies, and individuals alike.Whereas The Peter Principle, a four-million-copy bestseller from the 1960s, argued that most (male) workers will inevitably be promoted to one level beyond their competence, Tom Schuller shows how women today face the opposite scenario: their skills are being wasted as they work below their competence levels. Schuller blends interviews and case studies with examples drawn from literature and popular culture to examine how attitudes have changed, from the advent of higher education for women in the 19th century to female dominance at all academic levels today. He also reveals how this has translated - or failed to translate - into the lived experiences and careers of professional women, whether they are nursery workers, council employees, journalists, or oil company executives.Engrossing and full of everyday insights into how gender impacts on working life, The Paula Principle is a well-reasoned analysis of the obstacles that many women face, and a call for us to challenge them on a personal, organisational, and societal level.PRAISE FOR TOM SCHULLER'[Schuller's] passion for social justice is stamped on every page of a study whose clarity and well researched insights are captivating.' The Times Higher Education'The path to equality thus far has involved women converging on traditionally male employment patterns, Schuller argues: now is the time for men to move towards traditionally female ones - to improve equality and work-life balance, and to make better use of our resources.'
