Ensuring Equality of Opportunity in Management Development: Realising Potential

Abstract

Gender bias in the management school lecture room is one major hurdle facing aspiring women managers (“Getting the Basics Right”, Training Tomorrow, July 1992). But the experience of the NHS shows that the problems facing women — and other under‐represented groups — run much deeper than simple issues of business school style and content. They provide a wide‐ranging agenda of action for management developers which, if left unaddressed, can threaten the effectiveness of the whole organisation.
