After two decades of womens increasing presence in management,raises the question of what impact this has had on perceptions ofmanagement. Discussion of the impact of work by Virginia Schein onsupporting women only training, based on reducing femaledeficiencies, and by Sandra Bem in developing the idea ofthe androgynous manager leads to consideration of valuing diversity asan important theme for management development in the 1990s. Sets theargument for recognizing diversity against evidence from a smallscalestudy which showed that both male and female managers saw increasingmasculinity as crucial to being effective and successful. Raises theimplications for trainers, and argues the need for managementdevelopment programmes to include consideration of diversity from acontributory perspective.
