Download or read book Professionalization in the Creative Sector written by Margaret J. Wyszomirski and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-10-26 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book seeks to better understand the processes and influences that have driven professionalization in the arts. It develops an analytical framework that examines how processes of professionalization that typically influence and shape work conditions and occupational status are, in the creative sector, augmented by atypical worker efforts and choices to self-structure their protean careers. The book brings together a collection of works that explore the specific trajectories of professionalization in a variety of creative occupations as well as the formative processes that work across many creative occupations. In particular, the scholarship presented focuses on the interaction of three key variables: field growth and institutionalization, mutual benefit organization within fields and occupations, and the intervention of cultural policy to validate and foster professional support structures. In the broader context of expanding globalization, growing awareness of diversity, and tectonic shifts in technology, this volume unveils research-based implications for cultural policy, cultural workers, and cultural organizations. This book will be of interest to researchers, creative professionals, as well as undergraduate and graduate-level students in the fields of arts administration and culture.

Download or read book Equal Yet Different written by Anita Bhogle and published by Penguin Random House India Private Limited. This book was released on 2022-06-27 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Equal, Yet Different is exactly how women want to be treated, and need to be treated. Despite the growing number of women acquiring professional degrees, they remain under-represented and almost invisible when it comes to top leadership positions or decision-making roles. While women have proved beyond doubt that they are just as talented and capable as men, they are still held back by expectations laid down by society and a largely unconscious bias on the part of colleagues and family members. Besides grappling with external challenges, women find that their own mindsets are also shaped by similar conditioning. The reasons for women not making it to the top echelons of the business world extend far beyond the known ones like marriage and maternity. Based on in-depth interviews with career women, leaders and experts on diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI), Equal, Yet Different identifies catalysts that can help women achieve maximum potential and fulfilment. This book will benefit all those interested in women's careers-women themselves, their spouses, bosses and even organizations looking to succeed. ADVANCE PRAISE 'A must-read for all working women who aim to rise to the very top of their game . . . also for the men who lead organizations or someday hope to, and men who have wives/partners.
