Ženske v managementu

magistrsko delo

Manuela Breznik (Author), Duško Uršič (Mentor)

Abstract

Ženske in njihove sposobnosti za vodenje podjetij so bile v svetu managementa, ki je veliko bolj naklonjen moškim, dolgo neopažene. Vsi poznamo reke, da za vsakim uspešnim moškim stoji uspešna ženska in da ženska podpira tri vogale v hiši. V družbi je zakoreninjena miselnost, da mora ženska podpirati partnerja in skrbeti za družino. Pri tem se poraja vprašanje, ali je ženska ob vsej odgovornosti, ki jo prinaša skrb za družino, lahko tudi uspešna managerka. V magistrskem delu bomo ugotavljali položaj žensk na vodilnih položajih v gospodarskih družbah v Sloveniji in predstavili ovire, s katerimi se ženske srečujejo na svoji poti na najvišje managerske položaje. Izpostavili bomo lastnosti managerk in njihove prednosti. Podrobneje bomo opisali moški in ženski stil vodenja ter predstavili rešitve za podiranje ovir pri napredovanju žensk – na ravni organizacije in žensk samih ter kaj lahko pri tem stori zakonodaja. Položaj managerk v Sloveniji bomo primerjali s položajem managerk v drugih članicah Evropske unije, pri čemer se bomo osredotočili predvsem na vrzel v plačah, stopnjo izobrazbe in na odstotek žensk na najvišjih položajih v upravljanju gospodarskih družb. Magistrsko delo je razdeljeno na dva dela – teoretičnega in empiričnega. V teoretičnem delu smo se podrobneje dotaknili definicije managementa, nalog in vlog managerja, ženskega stila vodenja, stereotipov o ženskah – managerkah ter tudi razlik med stili vodenja. V empiričnem delu predstavljamo izsledke raziskave o položaju žensk v managementu v Sloveniji. Raziskavo smo opravili med ženskami, ki zasedajo najvišje položaje v velikih gospodarskih družbah v Sloveniji. V raziskavi so povzeti razlogi za manjšo zastopanost žensk na vodilnih položajih, konkretno, s katerimi ovirami so se ženske, ki danes sodelujejo pri upravljanju velikih podjetij v Sloveniji, spopadale na začetku kariere. V raziskavi tudi predvidevamo, kaj se bo s številom žensk na najvišjih položajih dogajalo v prihodnosti.

Secondary abstract:	The world of management has always been in favor of men. Women and their abilities to manage companies have stayed unnoticed for a long time. We are all familiar with the sayings “Behind every successful man is a woman” and “A woman holds up three corners of the house, and supports the fourth. « The mentality that a woman must support her partner and take care of the family is deep-rooted into our society. Therefore we wonder whether a woman can be a successful mother and wife, as well as a successful manager. This Master’s thesis deals with the position of women in leading positions in business companies in Slovenia and with obstacles women encounter on their way to the top management positions. We will emphasize the characteristics of female managers and their advantages. We will describe male and female management style in detail and present the solutions for breaking gender barriers for women’s promotion on the organizational level. We will also check what legislation can do in this matter, as well women alone. We will compare the position of female managers in Slovenia with those in other members of the European Union, paying special attention on gender pay gap, level of education, and the percentage of women in leading management positions. This thesis consists of two parts, theoretical and empirical. In the theoretical part we have thoroughly described the definition of management, duties and functions of managers, female management style, stereotypes of female managers, and differences in management styles. The empirical part deals with the presentation of research results on women’s position in management in Slovenia. Our research has been done on women in leading positions in different Slovenian corporations. The research summarizes the reasons for smaller percentage of women in leading positions, precisely which barriers did women, who today have the leading position in large Slovenian companies, have to overcome at the beginning of their career. In our research we predict what will happen with the number of women in leading positions in the future.
