The Role of Gender in Business Process Management Competence Supply

Parenting and management skills: The mediator role of empathy

“…The present results indicate no differences between men and women concerning their management skills, although women being more empathetic than men. The first finding is consistent with extant research that did not relate gender differences to the capacity to exercise individual management competencies (Bono et al , ; Gorbacheva, Stein, Schmiedel & Müller, ; Trauth, ). In this sense, managers and leaders, whether men or women, should have a set of skills to ensure an accurate execution of their jobs, namely empathy and sensitivity, as well as moral solidarity, commitment, and concern, especially during or after crises (Ciulla, ).…”

“…Of these 3 main categories, career advancement was addressed in 40 articles, career persistence was addressed in 37 articles, and career choice was addressed in 33 articles. In addition, we found articles that could not be included in these 3 outcome categories, which we coded as not applicable because they focused on constructs such as work‐family balance (eg, Baral & Bhargava, ; Quesenberry, Trauth, & Morgan, ), examining gender differences (eg, gender comparisons with regard to process management skills; Gorbacheva, Stein, Schmiedel, & Müller, ), or other topics (eg, literature review, Lo, ; history of the field, Gannon, ; editorial, O'Keefe, ) that could not be categorized into any of the 3 career stage outcomes (choice, persistence, and advancement) in Ahuja's model. Appendix includes a list of all of the articles (94 in total), ordered alphabetically, with the corresponding categorization noted.…”

The Tale of e-Government: A Review of the Stories that Have Been Told So Far and What is Yet to Come

“…This situation resulted from the ever-growing appearance and increased use of web-and cloud-based systems, mobile devices and social media as well as the online storage possibilities of information. New ways of analyzing this massive information like text mining have therefore received growing attention in the last years and have already been successfully applied in research, including the IS discipline [12,17,20,47]. In this respect, this approach represents a powerful tool, because it allows to go beyond the natural boundaries of manual data analyses (quantity-wise), and quasi de facto excludes humanly induced biases (content-wise) [46].…”
