Item type:Publication, The gender gap in gender-inclusive leadership practices: what men say they do and what women just don't seePurpose-This study explores the engagement of male executives in gender-inclusive leadership practices within the normative constraints of the gendered organisation. Design/methodology/approach-We developed a questionnaire focused on gender-inclusive leadership practices. A total of 1,205 executives in Switzerland completed the anonymous online survey. Male managers self-rated the questionnaire, while female managers assessed their external perspectives on men's engagement in gender-inclusive leadership practices. The data is analysed using variable cluster analysis. Findings-Findings indicate that male executives are more likely to engage in practices that facilitate work-life integration and demand fairness, but less likely to support and promote women. Furthermore, they are notably critical of measures that challenge the status quo. Women are significantly more critical in their ratings, particularly concerning men's engagement with gender equality in public. Practical implications-Insights into male executives' engagement with gender-inclusive leadership practices offer vital information for tailored training and intervention. Moreover, a clear understanding of the discrepancy between women's and men's perspectives fosters dialogue and is crucial for developing an inclusive climate. Social implications-As women remain underrepresented in higher organisational echelons, the findings support both the debate and further interventions for organisational transformation towards inclusion. Originality/value-This study contributes to recent debates on inclusive leadership. By contextualising the actions and inactions of male managers in the gendered organisation, the findings reveal that male executives are engaged in stabilising the status quo.Type:journal articleJournal:Equality, Diversity and Inclusion: An International JournalVolume:45Issue:9 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Gender-inclusive leadership practices in the gendered organisation: What men (can) do and what women just don’t see(2025-06); ; Jäckel, DorotheaMoving beyond individual competencies, this study explores gender-inclusive leadership practices (GILP) in the highly normative context of the gendered organisation. 1507 managers in Switzerland completed the anonymous online survey. While the 852 male managers self-rated the questionnaire, the 353 female managers rated their external perspective on men’s engagement. The data is analysed descriptively and using variable cluster analysis. The results highlight the practices that are already well-established, while others are perceived as more critical. Most strikingly, the results highlight a gender gap in perceptions. By contextualising what executives can and can’t do in the context of the gendered organisation, our findings highlight how GILP is intertwined with power and privilege. As a result, male managers, although highly motivated, are more committed to maintaining the status quo of the gendered organisation. Our findings provide important insights into the ambivalent outcomes of male allyship activities to promote gender equality.Type:conference paper - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Das Spiel kann beginnen: Mit Gleichstellungs-Poker Widerständen begegnen(2024-09-19); Widerstände können Veränderungsprozesse im Keim ersticken. Widerstände zeigen jedoch auch an, wo Energie statt Müdigkeit zu finden ist. Diese produktiv aufzugreifen ist deshalb eine wichtige und förderliche Aufgabe für Veränderungsprozesse. Im Workshop an der 8. St. Galler Diversität & Inklusions Woche stellten Prof. Dr. Julia Nentwich und Dr. Gabriele Schambach das Kartenspiel von Leaders for Equality vor und experimentierten gemeinsam mit den Teilnehmenden verschiedenen Möglichkeiten, „Gleichstellungs-Poker“ zu spielen.Type:conference lecture - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
