Sobre IBD

Inhaltsangabe:Abstract: Women are still strongly underrepresented in upper middle and senior management positions, although they are now obtaining the necessary education and credentials in preparation for managerial careers and have good chances to enter the lower management ranks. This underrepresentation is emphasised in 'heavy' industry. But what are the reasons? There are numerous. But one in particularly caught our attention: the concept of tokenism. What exactly lies behind this notion of'token women'? Is it simply a fashionable trend or a reality which may be apprehended within the organisation? With this European Project we want to see if there was a reason which could explain why even with career development programmes for women managers which embrace moreover the creation of an equal opportunity corporate culture, equal opportunities in recruitment, training and promotion. The problem concerning the few women managers in the industry wasn't resolved. Zusammenfassung: Frauen sind noch immer in Führungspositionen stark unterrepräsentiert, obwohl sie die nötige Ausbildung und Vorbereitung dafür erhalten. Man findet sie dagegen im unteren Management. Dieser Zustand besteht besonders in der Industrie. Worin bestehen die Gründe für diese Situation? Sie sind zahlreich. Einen speziellen Grund möchten wir hier nennen: 'Concept of Tokenism'. Was steht hinter dem Begriff 'Token Women'? Ist es einfach eine Modebeschreibung oder eine Realität? In dieser Diplomarbeit wollten wir Gründe finden, die erklären, warum spezielle Karriereentwicklungsprogramme für Frauen, die gleiche Bedingungen in Kultur, Ausbildung und Einstellungschancen schaffen sollen, nicht zum gewünschten Erfolg in der Industrie führen.
