This book combines theory, empirical research, and practical, international case studies to provide students with a comprehensive resource that demonstrates theories on gender alongside their operation in everyday workplace situations.

Updated statistics on women’s participation in the workforce



Updated examples of resources for women in business



Two new chapters covering negotiation and influencing skills and women in STEM fields



New case studies, featuring comparisons between the position of women in the United States and in other countries



An instructor’s manual with advice, suggested answers to the end-of-chapter questions, and additional resources

This is a one-stop resource for any student interested in gender theory and issues that affect women in the workplace.
