DEVELOPING AUTHENTICITY IN MANAGEMENT DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMMES
Abstract
The ethnographic data obtained from in‐depth evaluations carried out in three leading European business schools were used to study women′s experience of management education. There were several structural differences between the three programmes, one of which was the number of women present. For example, one was an all‐male programme; the second was predominantly attended by males and the third programme had equal numbers of males and females. The findings precipitated the development of a model which suggests that only when equal numbers of women and men attend programmes for management development will women (and men?) feel able to express their authenticity in these settings.
