Summary: | It is argued that gender plays an important role in identifying
personal performances to the extent to which their
commitments and trust are judged by their organizations. A
research on Malay women in Malaysia found that a
stereotyping which describes performances and positions, is
being shaped by Islam as the official religion in the country.
The finding has significantly raised a question to this paper
which aims to investigate on how and to what extent Malay
Muslim women are positioned in organizations? What
would be a matter which underpins credibility and
performance of women in solving conflict? Is there any
significant differences between men and women in their
perceptions toward women's negotiation skills? In so doing,
this research had gathered data based on interviews wit11 30
respondents. This research found that the positive
stereotype is given to women negotiation skills. It indicates
that changes occur in stereotyping in the society which is
positively developed in solving conflict. Furthermore, this
study will share some ideas for future research. |
