Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Por qué las mujeres solo representan un 19 % de los comités de dirección y un 3 % de los CEO en las grandes empresas en este país? ¿Qué habría que hacer para que consigamos un liderazgo equilibrado en el mundo corporativo y por qué es esto necesario? Estas difíciles preguntas tienen complejas respuestas. Si señalamos los tres factores que más dificultan la carrera de las mujeres: Un entorno de trabajo sesgado, desfavorable para las mujeres. Insuficiente gestión por parte de ellas de las herramientas clave para el ascenso corporativo, que conduce a que no se encuentren candidatas. Una oferta insuficientemente atractiva para las mujeres, causada por la ausencia de elementos que las retengan e impulsen. Podemos decir que sus vías de solución conciernen primordialmente a las empresas y pasan por: Motivar a las mujeres a la escalada corporativa, redefiniendo qué modelo de líder tiene éxito, construyendo una motivación y flexibilizando la dedicación laboral. Capacitar a las mujeres para esta escalada con las herramientas y conocimientos necesarios para desenvolverse con éxito en la carrera corporativa. Y, sobre todo, crear un entorno de trabajo imparcial que permita a las mujeres competir en las mismas condiciones que sus colegas masculinos. Este libro está dirigido a todas aquellas personas que quieran entender por qué las mujeres no tienen una representación equitativa en los puestos directivos de las empresas y, más importante aún, qué es lo que hay que hacer para que este hecho se revierta. Con un enfoque integral, está basado en datos y en una amplia investigación, así como en las experiencias reales de más de 100 mujeres profesionales con talento.

Download or read book World Anthropologies written by Gustavo Lins Ribeiro and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-12 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its inception, anthropology's authority has been based on the assumption that it is a unified discipline emanating from the West. In an age of heightened globalization, anthropologists have failed to discuss consistently the current status of their practice and its mutations across the globe. World Anthropologies is the first book to provoke this conversation from various regions of the world in order to assess the diversity of relations between regional or national anthropologies and a contested, power-laden Western discourse. Can a planetary anthropology cope with both the 'provincial cosmopolitanism' of alternative anthropologies and the 'metropolitan provincialism' of hegemonic schools? How might the resulting 'world anthropologies' challenge the current panorama in which certain allegedly national anthropological traditions have more paradigmatic weight - and hence more power - than others? Critically examining the international dissemination of anthropology within and across national power fields, contributors address these questions and provide the outline for a veritable world anthropologies project.
