Who's the boss: The influence of gender stereotypes on perceptions of leaders and the likelihood of engaging in organizational citizenship behaviors

Year: 2010
Type: dissertation
Abstract: Over the past few decades, there have been an increasing number of women in management positions (Heilman, 2001). This study examined the role that gender stereotypes may have in influencing differences in extra-role helping behavior in the workplace. Although hypotheses were not supported, likability was identified as a variable of interest in the gender-helping behavior relationship. Future research should further examine this relationship and its implications for organizations.
