Arbeid en gezin werden lange tijd als twee verschillende levenssferen beschouwd, die elkaar weinig beïnvloeden. Deze visie is niet langer houdbaar. Ook de traditionele rolverdeling tussen mannen en vrouwen is aan het veranderen. Vrouwen zijn massaal op de arbeidsmarkt gekomen en willen, met of zonder kinderen, een loopbaan uitbouwen evenwaardig aan die van mannen. Mannen beginnen meer en meer een actieve rol in het gezinsleven te spelen, vooral het ontwikkelen van een hechtere band met hun kinderen krijgt voorrang. Sociale wetenschappers uit verschillende landen doen onderzoek naar de arbeidsvoorwaarden die bedrijven scheppn om het hun werknemers mogelijk te maken gezin en arbeid te combineren . In dit boek worden de resultaten van hun onderzoek voorgesteld.

An engaging contribution to the increasing body of knowledge about gender and organizations, Gender, Culture and Organizational Change examines gender-based inequality in organizations and considers how sexual and social relations between women and men based on sexuality, power and control determine the cultures, structures and practices of organization and the experiences of men and women working in them. Gender, Culture and Organizational Change represents a decade of experience of managing change and implementing theory in public sector organizations during a period of major social, political and economic transition and analyses the progress that has been made. It expands to make wider connections with women and trade unions in Europe and management development for women in the "developing" countries of Africa and Asia. It will be valuable reading for students in social policy, gender studies and sociology and for professionals with an interest in understanding the dynamics of the workplace.

What actually happens to organizations during gender and organization change endeavors? This book takes an in-depth look at the experience of seven Novib partner organizations in the Middle East and South Asia who undertook the challenge of the Gender Focus Programme. It recounts their analysis of their organization, and the route they chose to follow. The book presents field experiences of managing the politically sensitive agenda of promoting gender equality in the NGOs and negotiating the contradictions between using Organizational Development tools and promoting gender equality. In doing so, it shows how organizational change for gender equality is an integral part of gender mainstreaming processes. As a decade of evidence suggests, gender mainstreaming is vulnerable to becoming technocratic and ineffective. These seven organizations, unable to separate entirely the integral change process from their extrernal work as NGOs, experiences a spillover of gender justice concerns into their work in the field, with a variety of program results.
