Guido Friebel Professor of Human Resource Management, Goethe University Resident at the Forschungskolleg Humanwissenschaften: 2019‒2023 (Goethe Fellow) Research topic at the Forschungskolleg Humanwissenschaften: »Household bargaining, gender norms, and careers in organizations« (mit Daniela Grunow) Project outline: Women remain underrepresented, not only, but particularly, in key sectors of
society such as science, politics, top management, and the arts. Given women’s high educational attainment, labor force attachment and the intense policy efforts in many countries, this remains a puzzle. Discrimination cannot fully account for it, at least not for the high-skill sectors. We investigate how decisions in households (partnerships and families) are affected by norms and organizational policies and how these feed back into differential career outcomes. The project combines sociological and economic expertise, theoretical perspectives, qualitative and quantitative data, in particular, a combination of web-scraping and in-depth survey techniques to provide both aggregate and in-depth evidence.
