Women Leaders at Work
"Women Leaders at Work traces the personal life decisions taken by women who found ways to achieve greatness in their work. Each story is intriguing. But, collectively, the stories provide inspiration. They illustrate how real women of varied talents from varied backgrounds traversed quite different paths, seized opportunities presented in many guises, and found ways to achieve and to contribute to society.

Eliminating the Gender Pay Gap
This case examines Gap Inc. as a trailblazer in gender pay equality and a focus on investing in gender equity in leadership. The husband and wife founders who opened the first Gap store in San Francisco in 1969 did so as equal partners and grew the company together in an era of limited female business leadership. The Gap's inclusive corporate culture helped grow the company into a global brand and publicly traded company comprised of five divisions: Gap, Banana Republic, Old Navy, Athleta, and Intermix. This case provides a historic perspective of pay in the U.S. and defines methods for accurately measuring if a company's salaries are comparable. It identifies both the barriers to equal pay, as well as the practices and policies companies can implement to achieve equal pay and attain higher representation of female leadership. Also, this case illustrates how Gap has achieved equal pay and continues to ensure it, including through annual pay analysis, the prevalence of sponsorship, family-friendly policies, and more.

The Moral Background
In recent years, many disciplines have become interested in the scientific study of morality. However, a conceptual framework for this work is still lacking. In The Moral Background, Gabriel Abend develops just such a framework and uses it to investigate the history of business ethics in the United States from the 1850s to the 1930s. According to Abend, morality consists of three levels: moral and immoral behavior, or the behavioral level; moral understandings and norms, or the normative level; and the moral background, which includes what moral concepts exist in a society, what moral methods can be used, what reasons can be given, and what objects can be morally evaluated at all. This backg...

Reworking Gender systematically lays out arguments for the importance of work in our field, for communication's connections with and potential contributions to related disciplines, and for possible ways in which researchers can continue to challenge boundaries between presumably incommensurable discourses.
