Abstract
Purpose
This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies.
Design/methodology/approach
This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context.
Findings
Many women's career choices are shaped by culture to some extent. Alternative models are emerging where leadership success is not based solely on conventional indicators like status and economic gain. Women in Oman hold subjective views of success that incorporate work-life balance and deploying their leadership skills to mentor others.
Originality/value
The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
