In episode 4 we found that women are pushing for and pioneering
different ways of living and working, and many men also want to see
exactly that. If there are similar demands, what is going wrong?
How does the working world of men look like and what are the
implications for leadership and organization development? This is a
summary of my conversation with Christian Berger, gender equality
expert and lecturer at the Vienna University of Economics and
Business Administration. Christian also advises companies in gender
equality management and works at the Chamber of Labour in Vienna.
The interview took place in German, the full version is also
available on this podcast. We looked at the background and context
of the following questions: 1. the professional advancement of men
is defined in most cases by power and competition. To live up to
their role model, men have to fight for status, income and
professional success. What effects does the common male role model
have on the living and working worlds of men and women? 2 Why do
only few men leave their typical role models, e.g. by taking
paternity leave, working part-time or taking up a 'female'
profession’? Which prejudices are they exposed to, how do untypical
behaviors affect their careers? 3. How can organizations support
the development of a modern role model for men that opens up new
spaces for both men and women and at the same time strengthens the
organization’s long term success? I look forward to your
suggestions, feedback, constructive criticism, and questions about
