From Theory to Practice : How Valuable Are Women into Management Courses when You Become a Chief Executive?

Abstract

Most managers are men and most management courses make little reference to the specific needs of women. In recent years women into management courses have been developed but they are still only a small percentage of the total number of management courses. Explores the value of women into management courses from the viewpoint of somebody who had been involved in providing such courses and then became a woman chief executive. Discusses why such courses are needed and what such courses should and should not include.
