Abstract
The paper focuses on two issues of career
women. First, the challenges of the
second career which is often filled with
uncertainty and stagnation. Second the
perception that leadership style is based
on gender. The paper is based on two
short studies each addressing one of the
problems mentioned above. In the first
study, the perceived organization support
is the independent variable and organization
commitment is the dependent variable.
Results show that women who opted
for the second career and got the support
of the organization also showed organization
commitment. In the second
study, leadership style was the independent
variable and commitment was the dependent
variable. The results showed that
gender did not influence leadership style
pointing at the androgynous leadership
style of women.
