This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies.
Design: This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context.
Findings: Researchers completed a literature review looking at two intertwined ideas: the ongoing workplace challenges faced by women and the concept of mental toughness (MT) as a non-cognitive skill linked to peak performance. The review argued that MT could inform human resource management in several ways. If MT could be developed and applied in organizations, it could enhance women’s resilience, goal pursuit, and persistence in the face of workplace barriers, contributing to better retention and progression.
Originality: The briefing saves busy executives, strategists and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
