| Tiivistelmä: | A simulation of workplace conflict examined the effects of a manager's pregnancy on male and female subordinates. Participants had more negative impressions of and lower satisfaction with the pregnant manager than with the manager who was not pregnant, and initiated more social conversations with the former than with the latter. Participants had expected the pregnant manager to be passive, nice, and giving, and were surprised by her authoritative behaviour. The increase in social comments directed toward pregnant managers can be used in a positive way to connect with others and "humanize" the organization. |
