Women's Issues in Social Service Administration: The Views and Experiences of Women Administrators
Abstract
An examination, based on data from in-depth interviews, of the
perceptions & experiences of 57 women in social service
administration, & their views concerning numerous women's issues
for social service administrators. The topics include: (1) the
perceived effects of their being women on their hiring, promotions,
& salaries as administrators; (2) how being women in
administration influenced their relationships with superiors &
subordinates & their access to professional networks; (3) whether
a woman administrator must be more competent than a man in the same
position to be viewed as equally competent; & (4) experiences with
sexual harrassment.
