Seen But Not Heard

More about the book

The study explores the challenges faced by executive women in the workplace, particularly regarding their visibility and influence among male colleagues. It utilizes theories of self-efficacy, women's adult development, and mentoring to analyze participants' responses to a vignette of a board meeting where a woman's suggestions are overlooked. Through qualitative interviews and assessments, the research identifies nine strategies that help women assert themselves and highlights the importance of perceived self-efficacy and mentorship in fostering effective communication and recognition in professional settings.
