Organizations, gender and learning
Purpose This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies. Design/methodology/approach This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context. Findings Organizations need to use, create, and share knowledge to gain competitive advantage. Many organizations are traditionally based on a male culture. This means that men are seen as the “norm” and women as the “other.” Women, thus, feel excluded and their voices, opinions, and knowledge go unheard. This can be detrimental to successful organizational learning. Practical implications The paper provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world’s leading organizations. Originality/value The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
