European Women in Business and Management

Book excerpt: Explores the past, present, and future position of women managers in each of the respective European Community states, not only detailing the most recent available employment statistics, but also helping to unravel some of the reasons for similarities and differences between member states. In particular, the authors examine the problems and barriers encountered by women in business and management in their respective countries, and suggest ways of reducing these problems so that the opportunities to enter business and management, and climb up the corporate ladder, are as accessible to women as to men.
