Work, Gender, and Family: A Pedagogical Trifecta

Keywords: work, gender, family

Abstract: The intent of this Roundtable is to engage participants in an active discussion regarding the author’s recent development of a course entitled “Work, Gender, and Family”. The roundtable will address the career, organizational, and societal considerations inherent at the intersection of these interrelated domains. In so doing, the course addresses a unique pedagogical need in many Management departments: Despite the increased popularity of work-family and gender considerations within the fields of Management and Organizational Behavior, few institutions offer such a course. The session reinforces the conference theme of ‘Bridges,’ as it effectively bridges these interrelated topics in management pedagogy.
