现在有一项国际议程，要增加妇女在各组织最高层的代表性。这一议程部分是由一个商业案例驱动的，该案例认为性别多样性为组织带来了价值，特别是经济价值。在这篇文章中，我们回顾了将女性在高级领导角色中的代表性与可计算的、可验证的组织成果联系起来的经验证据（例如，组织财务绩效、实践和人口统计数据）。我们考虑了女性担任首席执行官、公司董事会董事、高层管理团队成员和经理时的影响。我们的结论是，在顶部的妇女有组织成果的影响，但这种影响是更明显的组织做法和组织人口比财务业绩。我们建议研究人员在组织层面上研究性别与绩效的联系，使他们的理论观点明确，区分中介机制，在他们的结果选择是有选择性的，并增加他们的重视上下文主持人。
There is now an international agenda to increase women’s representation at the top of organizations. This agenda is driven in part by a business case arguing that gender diversity brings value, particularly economic value, to organizations. In this article, we review the empirical evidence linking women’s representation in senior leadership roles to countable, verifiable organizational outcomes (e.g., organizational financial performance, practices, and demographics). We consider women’s impact when they are CEOs, directors on corporate boards, members of the top management team, and managers. We conclude that women at the top have an impact on organizational outcomes, but this impact is more visible on organizational practices and organizational demography than on financial performance. We recommend that researchers studying the gender-performance link at the organizational level make their theoretical perspectives explicit, distinguish among mediating mechanisms, be selective in their outcome choices, and increase their emphasis on contextual moderators.
