| Tiivistelmä: | A study conducted to investigate the aspirations and expectations of women managers hold for achieving senior positions is described. The subjects were employed in various departments of a public sector organization and investigated by the use of biographical interviews. It was found that individuals aspired to achieve higher level posts than they expected, and that many had entered a career in the public sector by default, having received poor career advice. Drawing on research conducted elsewhere describing career choice mechanisms, it is argued that a combination of work motivation, opportunity, sex role socialisation and expectations contributes to self-limitation in women's career decisions. |
