Managerial Promotion: The Dynamics for Men and Women

This report is an expanded version of the article Promotion Deci­sions as a Diversity Practice published in 1995 as part of a special issue of the Journal of Management Development on gender issues in management development (volume 14 issue 2 pp. 6-23). The journal published by MCB University Press in West Yorkshire England serves as an international com­munication medium for all those working in the management development field. We decided to publish this version of the journal article so that more of our primary audience of American managers academicians and human resources practitioners would have access to the information.
