| Tiivistelmä: | A number of issues within the area of gender and organization are examined. Alternative approaches are discussed - from comparing groups of women and men in organizations to using gender as a metaphor for illuminating the character of organizations. The limitations of generalizations on the relationship between gender and organizations are indicated. Instead of advocating a unitary feminine view, differences between groups of women and a multiplicity of forms of masculinity in working life are suggested. Based on an organizational symbolism approach, this leads to a better understanding of gender bias and conflicts in organizations. The patterns of interaction on the symbolic level do influence the work climate. |
