“…Women's emancipation is constrained by myths and customs that deprive women of their rights, which undermines the achievement of their strategic needs. Those who do attain leadership positions have to conform to male stereotypes of leadership to be able to lead, or they are squeezed out of the system (Painter-Morland, 2011). Among factors that force some of them to resign voluntarily from their positions are the "exclusion from male social networks" and "value clashes."…”

Women's productive roles have generated important debates, heuristic as well as practical, in the scientific and development community. In Benin, women farmers are playing a key role, particularly in agriculture and cotton production, where they are involved throughout the production process. However, only a handful of them are involved in the management of farmer organizations. This article aims to identify factors that constrain or enable women's representation in the management of cotton organizations. It uses survey data and the life history method to meet its objectives. The life history method was applied to two women leaders who are exceptions to the rule, to document their experience as board members of organizations. Both were cajoled into their positions, and then ousted unceremoniously. The results suggest that gender myths and stereotypes still determine the involvement of women in managing organizations. And the male motive in involving women in management continues to remain questionable. Guirguissou Maboudou Alidou is a PhD researcher at

“…Users include entrepreneurs, celebrities, influencers, and scholars among others. We can interpret this in relation to the fact that women may need to have a more established role to be followed by the media, while men may be followed for accomplishments in a broader range of areas, or it responds to the fact that women are underrepresented in power positions (Aaldering & Van Der Pas, 2018; Bode, 2016; Carli & Eagly, 2002; Connell, 2013; Kubu, 2017; Lombardo, 2008; Lovenduski, 2005; Madsen & Andrade, 2018; Painter-Morland, 2011), and media may follow the ones in power positions (Figure 16).…”

“…We analyzed whether the accounts that belonged to citizens (not institutions) were from men, women, or nonbinary citizens (Butler, 1988; Richards et al, 2016), in order to understand whether the accounts the media began to follow are gender-balanced or if they respond to other long-lasting patterns of media behavior in relation to gender, such as the disproportion in the use of male sources over female ones (Armstrong, 2004; Armstrong & Gao, 2011; Armstrong & Nelson, 2005; Bustamante, 1994; De Swert & Hooghe, 2010; Moreno-Castro et al, 2019; Zoch & Van Slyke Turk, 1998), or the unbalanced representation of men over women in the news and in the media (Armstrong, 2004; Armstrong & Gao, 2011; Caro González et al, 2014; Len-Ríos et al, 2005; López González, 2002; Shor et al, 2015), which could be related to the underrepresentation of women in power positions (Carli & Eagly, 2002; Connell, 2013; Kubu, 2017; Madsen & Andrade, 2018; Painter-Morland, 2011). We also crossed this data with the types of accounts and with the number of followers.…”

“…The accounts that belong to women generally correspond to politicians or journalists, as opposed to accounts that belong to men, where we can find besides these subcategories, more user type accounts which include entrepreneurs, celebrities, influencers, and scholars. This could mean that for women to be followed by the media, they have to have an established political or media role, or due to the fact that there are less women in leadership and power positions (Carli & Eagly, 2002; Connell, 2013; Painter-Morland, 2011), or that the media perpetuates gender underrepresentation of women (Armstrong, 2004; Len-Ríos et al, 2005; Shor et al, 2015).…”

The digital sphere and social media platforms have prompted new logics regarding information access and influence flows among media, politicians, and citizens. In this exploratory study, via a machine learning software and with data visualization methods, we analyzed social media data in order to find patterns that can contribute to comprehend the new dynamics of influence between the media, politicians, and citizenship in the context of social media and digital communication, specifically on Twitter. We analyzed who the top 50 Spanish generalist media with most followers started following in 2017, 2018, and 2019 on Twitter, the quintessential informational network. To do so, we melded data visualization computational and manual methods. We used an artificial intelligence big data analysis software to visualize the network of media from Spain in order to identify the sample. Afterward, we extracted the top followed accounts by the sample and categorized them in types of accounts, institution/citizenship, country, number of followers, and gender, to proceed with the data visualization to identify trends and patterns. The results show that these media accounts started following mainly accounts that belonged to male politicians from Spain. We could also spot among the years of the study an inversely proportional trend from the media that went from following mainly institutions to following a majority of citizens, and to start following more accounts with a smaller number of followers every year. The tendency to follow accounts from Spain that belong to men grew or remained a majority among the years of the study.

“…One of the strongest predictors of becoming a leader is being a male. Across the world, statistics serve as a dismal reminder that men remain vastly overrepresented in the most elite executive positions (Painter-Morland, 2011;Schuh, Bark, Van Quaquibeke, Hossiep, Frieg, & Van Dick, 2014). A metaanalysis examining the extent to which stereotypes of leaders are culturally masculine, demonstrated this overall masculinity of leader stereotypes (Koenig, Mitchell, Eagly, & Ristikari, 2011).…”

Are We Sucked into Fairy Tale Roles? Role Archetypes in Imagination and Organization

This research is an attempt to understand and measure mythological roles in attributional processes. Drawing upon Carl Jung's work on the archetype we, first, argue how role archetypes from fantasy dramas and worldwide fairy tales populate organizational life, and further, contend that they have extensive influence on how group members sort their judgments of each other. In the second part of the article, our understanding of role archetypes is aided by quantitative measurements: participants in 31 consecutive leadership development classes are asked which fellow classmates they spontaneously associate with each of seven good and seven bad fairy tale roles (deep roles), if any. Our main question is to evaluate the magnitude of agreement on the assignment of roles. Results give strong support to the assumption that group members quite easily categorize fellow members into stereotypes identified by fairy tale roles. Given the evidence in the present analysis, we posit that the role imagoes most frequently assigned (The Big Five of Fairy Tales) are isomorphic with core family roles, and further, that broad personality traits have their roots in archetypal imaginations. To more effectively secure that mythological mechanisms will not triumph over more rational, complex and balanced ways of judgments, we suggest that organizational research should acknowledge the subtle and hidden world of deep role archetypes. Keywordsarchetype, deep role, fairy tale, Jung, organizational mythology, role attribution 'In the beginning is the image; first imagination then perception; first fantasy then reality … We are indeed such stuff as dreams are made on.
