摘要：Are the differences observed between men and women in business and corporate
world a function of biological and psychological differences between the genders or are
they mostly a function of cultural learning and cultural definition of gender roles? The
author, using data collected on how men and women define success and the source of
such definitions has found negligible differences between the two genders. These
observations are explained by the fact that, as data indicates, most of such values and
norms are learned in schools and universities, and the observed lack of difference among
genders may be a reflection of the remarkable change in gender bias in these institutions
in the past few decades. However, there are a few areas that can be interpreted to point to
the existence of stronger “nurturing instinct” among women.
