Křížková, Alena. 2010. „Proč se české ženy ženou na manažerské pozice?“ Pp. 274-288 in H. Maříková, T. Kostelecký, T. Lebeda, M. Škodová (eds.). Jaká je naše společnost? Praha: SLON. ISBN 978-80-7419-025-4.

The Chapter offers an answer to a question: Why there are so few women in management positions in the Czech labour market? To find an answer it also asks, what are the motivations and strategies of women to follow a career path and to ester management positions? The assumption that women cannot or do not want to dedicate as much time and energy to work as men does not apply. Neither does apply the opinion that women do not have required abilities for management positions. The fact that women create only one fourth of those in management positions is a consequence of a whole set of barriers. Women have to create strategies to overcome the barriers which in fact mirror the position of women in the labour market in general not only in management.
