ORGL3000 - Sex, Power, and Leadership

Spring 2024

This course is designed to introduce students to issues of sex (biology) and gender (social) in society and in organizations. Stereotypes persist about how men and women should ?be? and act in public. We hold images and beliefs in our minds about sex and gender, often subconsciously. Many of them come from our patriarchal social system, even as patriarchy has come under some scrutiny lately. Others come from our cultural traditions and religion. We will discuss manhood and masculinities as well as womanhood and femininities, and conformity. Also in this course, students will gain understanding about what patriarchy is and how it unconsciously (and through violence) controls our culture; how power is gained, maintained, and used by the sexes; and how beliefs about sex and gender affect our beliefs about leadership and the performance of leadership in organizations and society.
