Written in a clear accessible style, it provides an in-depth analysis of university structures, cultures and practices at senior management level. Despite the managerialist rhetoric of accountability, we see structures where access to power is through the Presidents blessing, very much as in a medieval court. We see a culture that is less than comfortable with the presence of women, and which, in its narratives, stereotypes and interactions exemplifies to a rather nineteenth-century view of women. Sites and sources of change are also identified. In a global context where diversity is crucial to innovation, it challenges us to critically reflect on management and on higher education.</p>...780765Management and gender in higher education17272399https://www.gandhi.com.mx/management-and-gender-in-higher-education-1/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/484973/497d869a-5c14-47a9-8c6d-cc6678572351.jpg?v=638335002574500000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20159781526103109_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_<p>This book is a definitive examination of higher education: locating it in a wider neo-liberal context involving the state and the market, with a specific focus on recent higher policy and on the elite group of senior managers in universities.
