The study suggests several avenues for future research to further understand and address gender imbalances in the workforce. One key area is exploring how different aspects of job design, beyond recruitment strategies, might influence men’s decisions to enter female-dominated fields. Additionally, investigating the long-term effects of these interventions on both male and female workers’ career progression and job satisfaction could provide a more complete picture of diversity and inclusion in these sectors. Finally, expanding the research to other industries and cultural contexts would help determine the broader applicability of these findings and refine strategies for fostering gender diversity across various industries.

Science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) are seen as the fields of the future, with expanding job opportunities creating the goods, services and innovations that shape our daily lives.

Virtually no progress has been made in the past two decades.

If there are still few women in management positions, it’s because gender stereotypes are still legion… and women have unfortunately integrated some of them.
