| Tiivistelmä: | This study challenges the assumption that male and female business leaders establish gender-stereotypic organizational characteristics in their companies. Data of 229 businesses in Vancouver, Canada showed that an owner's sex has no effect on the extent of a company's bureaucracy or the femininity of its employment relationships. These findings hold even in situations theoretically conducive to eliciting gender stereotypes. Rather than conforming primarily to the archetypically masculine model of organizing, both male and female owners manage their companies with a mix of masculine and feminine approaches. |
