- W2287698911 abstract "Omair, Katlin Women’s managerial careers in the context of the United Arab Emirates Jyvaskyla: University of Jyvaskyla, 2011, 57 p. (Jyvaskyla Studies in Business and Economics ISSN 1457-1986; 106) ISBN 978-951-39-4490-2 (nid.) ISBN 978-951-39-4491-9 (PDF) The aim of this dissertation is to examine women’s careers evolving in a socioculturally different context, such as the United Arab Emirates (UAE). While, the careers of Western women have gained considerable attention in the existing literature, the research on Arab women and their managerial careers remains scarce. The position of Arab women and their managerial careers are investigated from two different viewpoints: women’s managerial career development and female managers’ professional identity construction and seeks to answer to the following research questions: (1) How do the UAE national women managers construct their career development in a patriarchal working environment? (2) How do the UAE national women construct their social identities through the meanings they ascribe to their clothing while pursuing managerial careers? (3) What is the role of socio-cultural background on Arab women’s managerial careers? The study uses exploratory qualitative research techniques in the form of in-depth interviews held with fifteen female managers in the UAE. Both Grounded Theory and narrative approach were used in data analysis. The results of this study emphasise the importance of socio-cultural context on women’s careers and argues that due to the differences in personal, family and socio-economic circumstances, women’s careers can be viewed as a typology. The research results produced a typology of four categories of career development of Arab women managers. In addition the results of this study show the role of professional clothing in identity formation and identify multiple coexisting identities in Arab women pursuing managerial careers." @default.
