Schein\u2019s article was very interesting and encouraging for me. In the beginning I was a little concerned because of the way she associated certain effective leadership characteristics dependent with certain genders, but the way that Schein disassembled these association was amazing to me. In order to actually assess an issue, in this case sexism, it becomes important to ask the right questions and that\u2019s what she did in this article.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Instead of focusing on making women have to choose between family and career path, she takes a very extraordinary stance and asks to effectively infuse the two. I value this because it does not completely take away from the nurturing aspect of females, which would be problematic because it is often very true, but instead disrupts the idea that a mother can not also be someone devoted and successful in their field of work. In doing this I believe that she is able to diminish the preconceived \u201cfeminine\u201d and \u201cmasculine\u201d qualities and successfully offers a solution to the issue of gender discrimination in the work place. By integrating these unnecessarily separate yet crucial aspect of life, <\/span>work<\/span><\/i> and <\/span>family<\/span><\/i>, there is less of a chance for these stereotypes to persist, as they resolve the issue of restricting women to the household.<\/span><\/p>\n

The questions she raises are valuable and answering them would create the opportunity to at least address the issue.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
