Abstract

Two explanations for women's limited presence in top corporate positions were tested. The person-centered explanation argues that women's work orientations are contrary to the demands of top corporate positions. The organization-centered perspective suggests that women's orientations vary with respect to hierarchical level: The higher the position, the more "top-management" focused the orientation. Women's orientations towards their careers, organi zations, jobs, and subordinates were examined with respect to organizational level. The results provided some support for the organization-centered perspective. Person-centered predications were not supported. The implications of the findings are discussed.
