It looks at the possibility ofreconciling work and family responsibilities depending on the women's stage in the life cycle, and explores existing stereotypes within organizations regarding women in upper management. Men's attitudes towards female managers are explored, making this a must for both men and women who wish to havea mutual understanding at work.
