Women in Management: Delusions of Progress
Carter, Nancy M.; Silva, ChristineArticle HBS-F1003B-ELeadership and People ManagementNew research shows that female managers continue to lag behind men at every career stage, right from their first professional jobs-and that's among graduates from elite MBA programs. The aggressive efforts this past decade to create opportunities for women weren't nearly as fruitful as we'd thought.

MeyerCase IVEY-9B15D001-EEntrepreneurship, Service and Operations ManagementThe operator of a dairy farm in Tennessee has begun renting goats for landscaping (see Goats: The Green Alternative (A) 9B11B018).

Goats: The Green Alternative (A)
David M. Currie; Kyle S. MeyerCase IVEY-9B11B018-EAccounting and Control, Entrepreneurship, Service and Operations Management, StrategyThe owner of a goat herd in Tennessee must decide whether to rent out his herd for a land-clearing project at a nearby resort. Goats are better suited to clearing the land than humans and machines, but the owner has never rented out his goats for such a purpose. The owner must identify costs associated with the project, then determine a price to charge for the service. Since the owner has no prior experience renting out livestock, he must come up...Starting at €8.20

For decades, the national trend has been for cow weights to increase because they produce larger calves, but evidence indicates that cow weights may have reached the point where the cost of maintaining a larger cow has become greater than the return from producing a larger calf. Analyzing this issue introduces marginal principles from eco...Starting at €8.20

Why Men Still Get More Promotions Than Women
Ibarra, Herminia; Carter, Nancy M.; Silva, ChristineArticle HBS-R1009F-ELeadership and People ManagementThough companies now invest heavily in mentoring and developing their best female talent, all that attention doesn't translate into promotions. A Catalyst survey of over 4,000 high potentials shows that more women than men have mentors-yet women are paid $4,600 less in their first post-MBA jobs, hold lower-level positions, and feel less career satisfaction. To better understand why, the authors conducted in-depth interviews with 40 participants i...Starting at €8.20
