Gender differences

Option #3
Recently, we have been discussing the gender aspect of organizational life. Discuss some ways in which gender is acted out within organizations. You can use our readings for examples of how gender appears in everyday organizational performances, such as costuming, forms of talk, as well as other practices. Close by discussing to what extent you think organizations are gendered – is there any part of an organization that isn’t shaped by assumptions about gender? Use chapter seven and our readings by Deborah Tannen and Rosabeth Moss Kanter to answer this question. (See previous post for answer).

Here is an interesting video on gender roles in society in general
