Like Mother, Like Daughter?

How Career Women Influence their Daughters' Ambition. Women are encouraged to believe that they can occupy top jobs in society by the example of other women thriving in their careers.

It offers a timely and original perspective on the debate about gender equality in leadership positions. Women are encouraged to believe that they can occupy top jobs in society by the example of other women thriving in their careers. Who better to be a role model for career success than your mother?

Based on a large, cross-generational qualitative sample, this book offers a timely and original perspective on the debate about gender equality in leadership positions.
