Summary, Conclusions and Recommendations

 

The study tried to investigate to the
extent in which these formal changes in management systems and role
prescriptions have resulted in change in work behavior and job satisfaction
experienced by managers.  This is the
manner unto which the study accounts the factors and the perception on the
criteria themselves.

 The conduct of this
study entails a detailed account of the demographic profile of the
respondents.  It is assumed that the
attributes of the respondents influence their behavior and answers on the
survey questions.  The study covers the
analysis of management development within the Omani national culture and
organisation culture of Arab management concept, and how the organisational
change can influence the management roles.

Summary

 

style='font-size:12.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:10.0pt;line-height:200%;font-family:
Arial'>On the basis of the data gathered in relation to the statement of the
problem, the following are the significant findings:

style='font-size:12.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:10.0pt;line-height:200%;font-family:
Arial'> 

When it comes to management jobs, women
are consistently under-represented. In general, this pattern seems to hold even
in the new commercial companies--a finding that confounds the view that
market-driven systems and audience goals will result in an increase of women's
power at the top. By far the most common obstacle to career development
reported the problem of male attitudes. Among the most important implications
of the male dominance is that women are judged by male standards and
performance criteria. Women in general are subjected to a masculine culture
particularly in organisations with an international orientation. This condition
makes the possibility of promotion. Moreover, among the barriers to female
managers' representation and contribution are societal, organizational, and
psychological.

Based on the survey conducted by the
researcher, the study found out that a notable number of respondents have great
doubts on the transparency of their firms as well as its objectivity towards
the employees. Moreover, the respondents are aware that length of service is
among what companies consider in terms of promotion.

style='font-size:12.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:10.0pt;line-height:200%;font-family:
Arial'>With all the evidence of gender objectivity among the responses of the
employees, it is unanticipated to see that majority of the system of the
respondent firms still acquires negative responses. This results shows that the
respondents perceive that there are still preconceived notions on the
capability of women as employees since they have observed that there are more
males recruited than females in their respective firms.style='mso-spacerun:yes'> 

            The work behavior and job satisfaction experienced by
managers are influenced by different factors.
