Description

Patriarchy and Gender Stereotypes in the Contemporary World offers a thorough analysis of the stereotyping of women, particularly in organisations and higher education. The book considers both theoretical and empirical evidence and articulates the potential for transforming perceptions of women at work and in society, emphasising the importance of understanding the pictures created in our heads by gender stereotypes and their impact both positively and negatively on the status of women. In addition, the authors consider gender stereotypes from different countries and generations, providing a uniquely detailed description of how patriarchy operates across cultures and time. The book is a key textbook and research reference for students, researchers, policymakers, academicians, and activists working on gender studies.

Her research interests consist of five interrelated subject areas: i) women in management/leadership/women entrepreneurs and gender stereotyping, ii) resilience, iii) liberal, radical and moderate feminism, iv) corporate Governance and CSR; and v) corporate prostitution. The main focus of her research is the impact of gender stereotyping on women's career progression in Southeast Asia. She is the editor and author of Modern Corporations and Strategies at Work and journal articles including "Gender stereotypes and their impact on women’s career progressions from a managerial perspective", "Antecedents of women manager’s resilience: conceptual discussion and implications for HRM" and "The impact of gender stereotyping on female expatriates; A conceptual model of research". Bhabani Shankar Nayak is a political economist working as Professor of Business Management at London Metropolitan University, UK.

The regional focus of his research is on the impacts of neoliberalism on the social, cultural and economic transition of indigenous and rural communities in South Asia.
