Abstract

A new organization man has emerged, one who wants to be an involved father with no loss of income, prestige, and corporate support - and no diminished sense of manhood. But since many companies still deem dedication to career the sole marker of professional success, this new man may believe he has to hide his participation at home. Not surprisingly, the compromises made by the new organization man bear a striking resemblance to those of the new organization women. And just as many senior managers now recognize that they''ll lose their most ambitious women if they don''t develop strategies to accommodate family needs, corporations may also lose their best and brightest men if they don''t address the needs of the 1990s man.
