Review Quotes: "As we look towards creating a more sustainable development agenda, the alleviation of poverty and creation of a more equitable society will be two key challenges to society. The role that business through its management has to play in using its power, reach and policies positively to embody gender equality will set an example and bring benefits to a wider society where gender inequality persists - this impact cannot be under estimated.
By setting out clearly the rationale for introducing a gender dimension into business management education, the book explores the catalytic role of educators and business schools in promoting gender equality in the workplace - a precursor to opening up opportunities for women to progress towards leadership roles."-- (04/01/2015)
