Abstract

Women’s involvement in the labor market continues to increase, but this does not happen to women in career leadership positions. In fact, women’s career advancement continues to experience obstacles and individual power plays a role in their career advancement efforts. The purpose of this research is to identify the challenges of improving women’s careers, their personal sense of power, and their efforts in improving their careers. The approach used was qualitative with an instrumental case study design. An open-ended questionnaire was distributed to get participants who fit the criteria to be interviewed, namely women who have worked for more than 1 year, there is a career ladder in their workplace, and participants indicated experiencing a glass ceiling. The results of research on four participants showed that the challenges that are still often faced by working women are discrimination in the work environment, family environment expectations regarding women’s domestic roles, and internalization of feminine roles in individuals. Participants indicated to have different personal sense of power, ranging from low to high. Individuals with a high personal sense of power tend to dare to express their opinions and are able to make structured plans for career development. While individuals with a low personal sense of power tend to be more silent, but still show a desire to develop a career.

玻璃天花板与个人权力感:女性职业发展中的挑战
女性参与劳动力市场的人数持续增加,但这种情况并未发生在职业领导职位的女性身上。事实上,女性的职业发展仍然遇到障碍,个人权力在她们的职业发展努力中发挥了作用。本研究的目的是确定改善女性职业生涯的挑战,她们的个人权力感,以及她们为改善职业生涯所做的努力。使用的方法是定性的和工具性的案例研究设计。我们发放了一份开放式问卷,以获得符合采访标准的参与者,即工作一年以上的女性,在工作场所有职业阶梯,参与者表示经历过玻璃天花板。对四名参与者的研究结果表明,职业妇女仍然经常面临的挑战是工作环境中的歧视、家庭环境对妇女家庭角色的期望以及女性角色在个人中的内化。参与者表现出不同的个人权力感,从低到高。个人权力感强的人往往敢于表达自己的观点,并能对职业发展做出结构化的规划。而个人权力感较低的人往往更沉默,但仍然表现出发展事业的愿望。
