继续教育部门雇用的妇女比例很高,但晋升到领导职位的妇女相对较少。文章试图解释这种性别不平衡,并认为,尽管变革和现代化的举措,继续教育部门仍然在领导,治理和管理实践的许多方面的性别。文章的结论是,虽然变化增加了妇女的机会,男性化的管理做法,在许多情况下,导致重新性别化的组织做法与不平等的性别影响。
The further education (FE) sector employs a high proportion of women yet relatively few women progress into leadership positions. The article seeks to provide explanations for this gender imbalance and argues that despite change and modernization initiatives, the further education sector remains gendered in many aspects of leadership, governance and managerial practices. The article concludes that while change has increased opportunities for women, masculinized managerial practices have led in many instances to the re-gendering of organizational practices with unequal gender impacts.
