Recognizing that women managers are facing barriers in achieving top level of management positions in industries, it adopts unique methodology of involving men and women managers as respondents to understand the key issues of gender diversity, glass ceiling, glass walls, glass cliffs, and gender inequality in the Indian corporate scenario. The book, via its six chapters, explores these key issues through the lens of feminist theories under four dimensions ? personal, work, organisational and social ? and contains an extensive literature review to understand the root causes of these issues. Secondly, it discusses a pilot study conducted to understand the perspectives about career growth of women managers. Outcome of this pilot study works towards conceptualising factors under four dimensions, mentioned above, influencing women participation in management, and to develop survey tools for further quantitative study. Thirdly, for the empirical analysis, the book employs exploratory factor analysis (EFA) to identify factors under each of these four dimensions; and structure of the relationship between factors and women representation in management is confirmed by the confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). This book is beneficial for several stakeholders as it is a multidimensional study. It is useful for the undergraduate and post graduate students and research scholars of management, social sciences (such as economics, gender studies, psychology, political sciences, sociology etc), law, medicine, and engineering. Apart from this, it is also useful for corporate executives, decision makers of corporate governance, women elected representatives, administrators, development practitioners, teachers, legal experts, international agencies like UN who are working on women empowerment, and all those agencies working towards meeting SDG5 goal. 410 0$aIndia Studies in Business and Economics,$x2198-0020 606 $aDiversity in the workplace 606 $aStrategic planning 606 $aLeadership 606 $aSex 606 $aEthnology$zAsia 606 $aCulture 606 $aDiversity Management and Women in Business 606 $aBusiness Strategy and Leadership 606 $aGender Studies 606 $aAsian Culture 615 0$aDiversity in the workplace. 615 0$aStrategic planning. 615 0$aLeadership. 615 0$aSex. 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aCulture. 615 14$aDiversity Management and Women in Business. 615 24$aBusiness Strategy and Leadership. 615 24$aGender Studies. 615 24$aAsian Culture. 676 $a658.400954 700 $aGuha$b Samapti$01742029 702 $aRajesh Kadam$b Sanskruti 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910865249303321 996 $aAn Inquiry into Women Representation in Management$94168650 997 $aUNINA
