Women's voices in management: identifying innovative and responsible solutions

Beth Keller

Abstract

Research examining women's voices in academia, women's leadership in academic and industry contexts, and their management styles in business and social spheres has been more or less steady since the late 1970s. For the last ten years, female students have accounted for approximately 57% of the students enrolled in colleges and universities around the world (Martin, 2014). Despite these enrollment numbers, female administrators in many academic institutions and non-academic businesses are still outnumbered by their male counterparts. The collection Women's Voices in Management: Identifying Innovative and Responsible Solutions edited by Helena Desivilya Syna and Carmen-Eugenia Costea asks readers to consider women's voices in different cultural and global settings, "emphasizing and materializing gender equality [...] in top management, entrepreneurship, and leadership in complex sociopolitical and culturally diverse societies" (p. 10).
