True to Myself
2
Q1.
In the oil firm, if I were Ethney, I would make an effort to act professionally and keep a positive attitude. My main objective would be to exhibit my proficiency, expertise, and abilities in my line of work. Additionally, I might think about remaining true to who I am while adjusting to the corporate culture. I need to modify my communication style and strategy without sacrificing my morals or beliefs, depending on the work environment and corporate culture. Finally, I may think about other tactics like networking, forming close bonds with coworkers, looking for sponsors and mentors, and aggressively looking for chances for advancement inside the organization. Such a strategy would be effective since it would enable Ethney to forge a solid
professional network, further her professional growth, and foster a more welcoming workplace.
Q2.
Even though gender equality has come a long way, there are still male-dominated cultures in several industries, including the oil and gas industry. These settings could be biased towards traditional masculine leadership techniques and contain unconscious prejudices. It may be difficult for women to advance and receive distinction in industries where men predominate. One
way to deal with these situations is to establish trusting bonds with important stakeholders and mentors who may offer advice and assistance (Chandra & Loosemore, 2004). Gaining respect and overcoming prejudices can also be accomplished by developing a reputation for proficiency and knowledge. In some circumstances, adopting an approach that deviates from one's inherent personality may be important to navigate cultural norms and acquire acceptance (Chandra & Loosemore, 2004). However, finding a balance between adapting and upholding one's fundamental beliefs is essential.
Q3.
3
Being "true to yourself" involves being real, acting in accordance with your principles and beliefs, and without compromising on a unique perspective. The choice of whether or not to stay true to oneself over advancing professionally in a business where men predominate is a matter of personal choice based on priorities and unique circumstances (
Mogomotsi, 2021)
. It can be challenging to maintain a balance between the necessity to be real and the need to fit in in a workplace where men predominate. Nonetheless, it's critical to take into account how an unhealthy workplace may affect a person's general job satisfaction and general well-being. It is unacceptable to support the persistence of such an atmosphere since it translates into a discriminatory culture and impedes the shift towards a more diverse and equitable workplace (Daft, 2022).
The Suarez Effect
Q1.
Carmelita Suarez should be named CIO by the CEO. Carmelita is relationship-oriented, to start. She is skilled at handling both people and conflicts. She keeps up with the most recent developments and fashions in IT. In a field that is evolving quickly, like technology, only individuals who keep up with the latest developments can thrive. She is delightful and has a stronger personality. She has little trouble incorporating many leadership philosophies, such as charismatic and transformative.
Q2.
Yes, Pat is damaging his career by viewing the development of relationships as "office politics" that detracts from regular work. He has a reputation for being goal-oriented. He considers technical proficiency and expertise to be prerequisites for the CIO role. He believes that cultivating relationships is a waste of time and that personal relationships have little
