Summary / Abstract:

LTNors moterys ne tik turi reikiamą išsilavinimą ir profesinę kvalifikaciją, bet nori ir gali eiti pareigas priimant aukščiausio lygio sprendimus, vis dėlto moterų ir vyrų asimetrija Lietuvos biržinių (angl. listing) bendrovių1 valdybose apibūdina šiame straipsnyje keliamą problemą. Straipsnyje, plėtojant ir naujai pritaikant teorinį sėkmingos karjeros moters modelį, empiriškai gilinamasi į biržinių bendrovių valdybos narių (direktorių) socializacijos ypatumus vaikystėje. Pusiau struktūruoto interviu metodu apklausta 12 (beveik 50 proc.) Lietuvos biržinių įmonių valdybų narių (direktorių). Tyrimas rodo, kad egalitarinė šeimos aplinka, neseksistinės socializacijos praktikos, socialinis teisingumas leidžia mergaitėms eksperimentuoti su įvairiais tiek socialiniais, tiek įtraukiančiais netradiciniais vaidmenimis, kurie sustiprina moterų saviveiksmingumą ir, ypač konkurencingų biržinių bendrovių valdybų veikloje, atlikti valdybos narių (direktorių) vaidmenis.

ENGlobally, gender equality in the boards continues on an upward trajectory with slow but positive progress – in 2016, nearly 19% of seats on the boards of the largest companies globally were held by women, up from about 14% in 2012, with 3 percent of this growth coming in just the last two years (Zehnder 2017). A leading country in this matter, Norway, has introduced its quota law in 2007 requiring boards of listed companies to have a gender balance of at least 40/60. The ten years result of this quota happens to be an increase in female board members from 6 percent in 2002 to 42 percent in 2016 (CORE 2017). The EU also tries to push for a quota for women on company boards so as to address the slow progress toward gender equality in the senior ranks of publicly listed businesses. Although 62.7% of new university graduates are women (graduating with Master’s degrees – 66.5%, and 58.9% graduating with doctorates) in 2014, they are outnumbered by men in leadership positions in the corporate sector in the Lithuania. When looking at the top executive positions, there are no women CEOs (Chief Executive Officers) in the listed companies in Lithuania. From December 2013 to September 2014, the share of women on boards (executives) in Lithuania increased by 2.8% (Šidlauskienė, Pocevičienė 2015). Thus, the current moment offers a strategic opportunity to proactively enhance gender equality and prevent any more widening of the gender and skills gaps. This research was aimed to analyze the theoretical aspects of gender balance on the executive boards of the listed companies and to explore childhood socialization predictors that impede (or facilitate) the increase of successful participation of women in decision-making bodies in the listed Lithuanian companies.The successful career women, or the high flyers theory, has been used to argue that childhood socialization, education, personality and motivation indicated personal traits needed for board level roles (White et al. 1992). Second, the individual career capital theory argues that taking up such a role consists of three ways of knowing: knowing-how, knowing-whom and knowing-why. Research results shows that egalitarian childhood socialization influences successful women’s careers in the listed company boards. Certain individual characteristics, such as integrity and honesty, accountability, result-orientation, being a team player, a relationship builder, a good listener and communicator, and genuine commitment and energy, are in demand in such companies as PANDORA A/S, Spencer Stuart, Board Succession etc. [From the publication]
