Abstract
  • Résumé. Les changements observés dans les structures organisationnelles et dans les institutions du marché du travail favorisent l’expansion de parcours de carrière individuels se développant hors des limites d’une seule entreprise. Cet article suggère l’idée que les femmes présentent des caractéristiques qui peuvent les rendre plus aptes à affronter des parcours de carrière boundaryless. En effet, leurs exigences personnelles et familiales, leur formation et les politiques de gestion des ressources humaines les ont traditionnellement contraintes à des carrières plus mobiles que les hommes, en termes de professions et de changements d’entreprise. Une enquête empirique a été menée sur un échantillon de 60 managers italiens travaillant dans des Directions du Personnel. Les résultats de la recherche montrent que les déterminants du succès professionnel des femmes sont différents de ceux des hommes et que pour atteindre des postes à responsabilités les femmes affrontent un nombre plus élevé de changements de postes.
  • Abstract. The changes in organizational structures and in labour market institutions favour the spread of career patterns which are not developed within the boundaries of one firm, but which émerge from transitions between organizations, departments, hierarchical levels, functions and sets of skills. We suggest that women might be favoured in following boundaryless career patterns because of their personal characteristics and education, and because they were "forced" to develop mobile careers to circumvent the glass ceiling. The aim of this article is twofold. The first objective is to verify if men and women follow different career patterns, in terms of mobility between functions, industries and firms. Second, we are interested in understanding what the factors are (individual characteristics and organization-related factors) which influence their mobility. An empirical research has been conducted on a sample of Italian Human Resource managers (30 women and 30 men). The results support the hypothesis that women have a more mobile career than men, and that their mobility is influenced by education level, organizational size and industry.
