Attracting and retaining female chefs
Highlights
Charles is a chef and lecturer at Kenya Utalii College, Nairobi, Kenya
The aim of this research was to establish if female chefs in Kenya encounter similar challenges to those experienced by female chefs elsewhere
Previous research shows that female chefs encounter career challenges in hospitality organisations and they struggle to make it as chefs; for example, studies by Druckman [1] and Harris and Giuffre [2,3] in the United States, Murray-Gibbons and Gibbons [4] in the United Kingdom, as well as Zengeni et al [5] in Zimbabwe
