Dr Theano Lianidou, Associate Dean – Research and Professional Engagement, presented her paper âCase studies with female protagonists: “Hidden” inequalities in the hidden curriculumâ at the 40th European Group for Organizational Studies (EGOS) Colloquium in Milan recently.
In this paper, Dr Lianidou and her co-authors Professor Wasti of the Middle East Technical University and Dr Dominick of the Stevens Institute of Technology, discuss their analysis of case studies portraying female leaders.
Hereâs a section from the abstract:
“Business schools can attenuate or exacerbate inequality in the workplace through influencing inequality-related attitudes of their students (re)entering the workforce during or after their studies. An effort to address inequality can be case studies portraying female leaders, which can help address the persistent gender inequality in leadership and can have a positive impact on inequality reduction through inspiring women to pursue leadership roles and altering the cognitive schemata of âthink leader, think male“.
