Book excerpt: The ‘Girls’ in The BoardRoom by Ibukun Awosika In this book, I have sought to share stories of women who have actively worked to earn their seats at the table; to celebrate the women who have, despite all the challenges of gender, built successful careers in the boardroom. And to use the stories and experiences of these women as a tool to equip and inspire other women who aspire to climb the career ladder and land top positions. Sit back and enjoy the journey through the eyes of these relentless women. IBUKUN AWOSIKA is the Founder and CEO of The Chair Centre Group. She chairs and serves on a number of corporate and not for profit boards. Ibukun is a graduate of Chemistry from University of Ife (now Obafemi Awolowo University), Nigeria; an alumna of the Chief Executive Programme of Lagos Business School, the Global Executive MBA of IESE Business School, Barcelona Spain and the Global CEO Programme of Wharton, IESE and China European International Business School (CEIBS). With a keen interest in social issues, particularly the advancement of women, Ibukun is a co-founder and past chairperson of Women in Business, Management and Public Service (WIMBIZ). Ibukun is also the founder of the Christian Missionary Fund; through this faithbased organisation, she works with hundreds of missionaries spread across Nigeria to change lives with the provision of medical, educational and other supplies. Ibukun is a multiple award-winning entrepreneur and the first Nigerian recipient of the prestigious International Women Entrepreneurial Challenge (IWEC) Award as a nominee of the U.S. Department of state in 2008. She is passionate about women, youth and her beloved country, Nigeria. Ibukun is happily married to Abiodun Awosika and they are blessed with three wonderful sons

They can be put into action regardless of your age, experience, industry, or whether you are a one-woman start-up or a big-company employee.

It provides invaluable wisdom for anyone who sees success on the horizon, but who wants help getting there on her own terms.

This book was released on 2005-05-19 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Occupational segregation has a major effect on the gender pay gap in the UK and deprives employers of potential recruits, a fact of particular importance in areas of skills shortages. The Committee's report examines occupational segregation and the associated tendancies for predominantly female occupations to be lower paid and undervalued. It focuses on four key aspects: the lack of knowledge about career options as a barrier to young people choosing non-traditional occupations; problems in accessing training in atypical areas; difficulties with alien or sometimes even hostile business culture; and the lack of availability of part-time or flexible working in the higher-paid occupations and at senior levels in all occupations. The Committee expresses its support for the work of the Sector Skills Councils in addressing this problem and in disseminating good practice, and argues that other organisations, such as trade associations and Regional Development Agencies, should become more active in this area. The Committee also calls on the Government to review equal pay legislation to try and make the principle of 'equal pay for work of equal value' more effective.

Book excerpt: In 2010, pioneering sociologist Catherine Hakim shocked the world with a provocative new theory: In addition to the three recognized personal assets (economic, cultural, and social capital), each individual has a fourth asset—erotic capital—that he or she can, and should, use to advance within society. In this bold and controversial book, Hakim explores the applications and significance of erotic capital, challenging the disapproval meted out to women and men who use sex appeal to get ahead in life. Social scientists have paid little serious attention to these modes of personal empowerment, despite overwhelming evidence of their importance. In Erotic Capital, Hakim marshals a trove of research to show that rather than degrading those who employ it, erotic capital represents a powerful and potentially equalizing tool—one that we scorn only to our own detriment.
