“…The bulk of these studies is quantitative, reflecting the current trend in organization and management research in China. In one of the few crosscountry comparative studies of the US, UK, and China, Song et al (2018) found that, in all three countries studied, female managers with male bosses were more likely to have managerial derailments than male managers. This is an interesting phenomenon that can be explored in much greater depth to understand if there is a definite causal relationship and why.…”

Human resource management (HRM) is underpinned by, and contributes to, the business ethics of the organization. Opportunities available to men and women as managers, and the role of managers more broadly, are critical in shaping business ethics in contemporary organizations. Research on women in management therefore provides an important lens through which to understand the institutional and cultural context of HR ethics as part of the business ethics of a country. To date, women in management in China remains an under-charted topic of research in the HRM field. Extant research and recommendations on the improvement of the position of women in management in China focus primarily on women themselves from a traditional, gender norm angle, instead of challenging the political and patriarchal system or any institutionalized discriminatory practice. This is, in part, due to the absence in China of a critical feminism approach or feminist movement, as found in Western societies, and the continuing strong influence of the state and media in portraying women's (stereotypical) image. There is significant room for research capacity building in scholarship on women in management research, for example, and through cross-fertilization of different disciplines and more rigorous research design and execution. This paper provides a critical analysis of extant literature on women in management and the ideologies underpinning it, and offers some suggestions for future research and conceptualization.

“…Further, more cross-country comparative studies will be helpful to understand if the gender-specific research findings related to China are shared to some extent with those found in other societal contexts and why (e.g. McGuinness et al, 2020;Song et al, 2018;Ye et al, 2016).…”
