Review Factors affecting the career path and aspiration level of a school leader - Men versus Women / VDM Verlag Dr. Mueller e.K.:Do today's men and women pursue leadership positions for the same reasons? Do the career paths of men and women differ in duration and types of positions held? What personal and professional variables affect the aspiration to leadership? The purpose of the this study was to investigate differences between males and females who were actively pursuing or not pursuing the superintendent's position with respects to personal and professional variables. Gender, personal characteristics, career path, career barriers and career facilitators were examined in relationship with aspiration level to the school superintendency. Findings showed the interaction between gender and career path was significant. More males tended to have linear career paths, while more females had non-linear career paths. In addition, the analysis of the career path interactions showed that male respondents in a linear career path were significantly larger than those in a non-linear career path. Female respondents were divided evenly between linear and non-linear paths. This study also found a majority of women to be firstborn as in previous research.

Review Women and Careers: Issues and Challenges / Sage Publications, Inc:Women face unique, gender-based issues solely because of their sex: sex and salary discrimination, child care, dual-career problems, maternity, and many more. Comprehensive and research-based, Women and Careers is an extensive study on the issues career women face. The authors first conducted a major survey, followed by a series of in-depth interviews, to discover how women themselves (rather than scholars and researchers) actually feel about the key issues surrounding their experiences in the workplace. The treatment stresses the positive message that women can succeed in the workplace despite having to overcome many obstacles, with a tone not of "poor me" but of "let's get it done. " Carol Wolfe Konek and Sally L. Kitch use both quantitative and qualitative research methods to discover what a large cross-section of working women are really thinking and experiencing in the workplace. The first volume of its kind, Women and Careers is a must for scholars, students, and professionals in management and organization studies, gender studies, and the sociology of work and gender.
