    Women - better leaders than men? In general and educational management it still "all depends" (2002)

    Notes: The growing impact of women in the workforce has kept the leadership style of women on the research agenda. Reviews some of the current thinking on women and leadership, drawing on general and educational management literature. Particular attention is paid to management in education because of: the continued pressure on the higher educational sector generally to be publicly accountable that indicates a specific need for effective leadership; the fact that at the school level, leadership is a central theme in the literature on organizational improvement and educational reform; and education is a field numerically dominated by women, yet despite some evidence of a growing willingness of women to take up leadership positions in the field, educational leadership is still a male preserve. Concludes with a synopsis of some of the factors that may account for differences in leadership style.

    Electronic mail appraisal: a buyer and seller survey (2003)

    Notes: The communication environment for buyer-seller interfaces is being transformed by a variety of new communication choices. The use of electronic mail in business today is especially prevalent. This investigation explores buyer and seller reactions to electronic mail use in buyer-seller relationships. Two studies conducted explore themes perceived by buyers and sellers regarding electronic mail use. From in-depth interviews of sellers, some initial themes are developed. Second, a survey from a sampling frame of business-to-business sales people and organizational buyers advances the questions of benefits and barriers perceived to be associated with electronic mail use from both the organizational buyer and seller perspectives. From a sample of 103 buyers and 107 sellers, questions are raised about the communicative and relationship aspects that potentially influence the buyer-seller interface. Findings suggest sellers need to be attuned to individual buyers' views in order to benefit from the new communication options regarding communication choices.

    Barriers to women's participation in international management (2001)
    Bradford : Emerald
    European business review 13 (2001), S. 10-19

    Notes: From the extant research in international human resource management it is evident that women are not progressing to senior international management positions at comparable rates to their male counterparts. Previous research has estimated that only 3 percent of expatriate managers are women. This paper argues that female international managers have to overcome many additional overt and covert barriers before being developed for international assignments. Based on an extensive empirical research study conducted with senior female international managers in a European context, the paper highlights a number of the barriers which the interviewees believed limit women's international career opportunities. The paper also highlights the implications of these barriers for international human resource management policies and practices.

    The unfashionable Drucker: ethical and quality chic (2000)

    Notes: Representing the soft and hard sides of management, ethics and quality are core aspects of an organization. Both are a philosophy as well as a process that seek to optimize behavior through clarifying the purpose and nature of work. This study examines Drucker's treatment of these central components of management. Following a discussion of the methodology employed, each concept is analyzed. The implications of the findings are then explored.

    "New leadership" and university organisational effectiveness: exploring the relationship (2001)
    Bingley : Emerald
    Leadership & organization development journal 22 (2001), S. 281-290 
    Details
    ISSN: 0143-7739

    Topics: Economics
    Notes: "New leadership" studies often suggest that transformational leadership in particular produces desirable leadership outcomes. However, few studies have demonstrated a direct link between the exercise of a particular type of leadership and organisational effectiveness. Efforts to establish such a link are hampered by the absence of a generally agreed definition of organisational effectiveness. This is particularly true in higher education where attempts to develop models of organisational effectiveness applicable to universities have been sparse despite worldwide calls for universities to demonstrate "value for money" performance. This paper examines the relationship between transformational/transactional leadership and university organisational effectiveness. In the course of the examination, the paper indicates possible modifications to the original conceptualisation of transformational leadership. The paper also argues for university leadership that is self-reflective and capable of utilising the array of leadership characteristics subsumed under the transformational and transactional leadership notions.

    The management of change: a narrative perspective on management development (2001)
    Bradford : Emerald
    The @journal of management development 20 (2001), S. 682-691 
    Details
    ISSN: 0262-1711
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Examines the role of narrative in management development. It contrasts the characteristics of this genre with the more conventional approach to management development. Using a management of change course delivered to management practitioners as an example, the paper draws attention to the value of narrative in enriching knowledge of the effects of change on individuals. It is argued that narratives express the richness and diversity of human experience and thus challenge simplistic analyses of management issues such as change that can result from adherence to narrow, mechanical models of human nature. Thus, narrative is recommended as a valuable tool for conveying the reality of managerial situations to practitioners engaged in management development.

    The role of postgraduate education in management development (2001)
    Bingley : Emerald
    Journal of European industrial training 25 (2001), S. 148-156 
    Details
    ISSN: 0309-0590
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005

    Notes: This article considers the role of postgraduate education in the process of management development. The article argues that most management education has to date concentrated on providing managers with a knowledge and understanding of specific organisational issues as defined by academics and that there are few attempts to provide managers with the skills to solve organisational problems as defined by managers. It is suggested that there is a need to rethink the structure and content of management education and that there are opportunities within specialist postgraduate programmes to experiment with new approaches and techniques. The article describes two Masters programmes in Ireland in which attempts are being made to move from a pedagogical to an andragogical approach in teaching and learning. The results to date indicate that there are positive results to be gained from this approach for both managers and lecturers.

    Career progression of young female accountants: evidence from the accountancy profession in Ireland (2002)

    Notes: nvestigates the career progression of young female Certified Public Accountants in Ireland. Focuses on generation X accountants. A total of 12 male and 12 female accountants were interviewed. All were under the age of 30 and qualified as within the past five years. Aims to examine: whether the young generation of female accountants has encountered the "glass ceiling"; if there is a tendency for male dominance in professional accountancy practices or in industry; whether gender affects one's ability to network socially; and the ability of the young accountants to balance their home and work lives. This study is particularly relevant, as previous research studies conducted with accountants have focused on older generations. The results of the study show that young female accountants encounter obstacles in their careers because of their gender. The female accountants in this study suggest that male dominance will persist in accountancy practices. Our findings also suggest that an important challenge for managers today is managing generation Xers, who work to live and do not live to work. Finally, the research findings from this study contribute primarily to the extant research on women in the accountancy profession. Also contributes to the corpus of knowledge on women in management, career development, and the development and management of generation X.

    People-centred management policies: a new approach in the Irish public service (2001)

    Notes: Recent literature on management underscores how new people-centred management policies help to deal with new uncertainties. This article reviews recent findings which advocate wider support for post-bureaucratic entrepreneurial management environments, focusing on respect for the dignity of individuals and for proactively developing individual skills and self esteem. A new moral contract among employees and their organization is shown to be essential for fundamental change, which can be fostered in an organization where there is a genuine belief in the ability of the individual, rather than in the organization per se. New relationships based on strong emotional commitments can release enormous entrepreneurial potential. Older bureaucratic styles of management exerting excessive control over individuals cannot cope with the increasing pace of unpredictable and ever-changing demands. Psychological pacts between management and frontline staff, founded on trust and intra-organizational relationships, result in greater organizational commitment from all staff.
