    La mujer directiva en España : Catalizadores e inhibidores en las decisiones de trayectoria profesional
    (IE University, 2007-01-08) Anca, Celia de; Aragón, Salvador; https://ror.org/02jjdwm75
    The last few years have seen important changes in the Spanish business environment with regard to women executives and their integration in business organisations. Nevertheless, figures still show a large quantitative difference on boards of directors and in the top levels of company management. Both public and private sectors have launched a series of initiatives designed to eliminate this imbalance. After carrying out studies in recent years, however, we believe that these initiatives are nearly all centred on the external barriers that hinder women’s promotion. Meanwhile there are major hurdles at an internal level that make women’s advancement difficult, and which only a change in culture and perspective can resolve it. We believe that training focused on individual perceptions of women in its career management can play a fundamental role in meeting the goal of total integration of women in the labour market

    Diversidad y pensamiento tribal en organizaciones colaborativas
    (Tuners, 2015) Anca, Celia de; Aragón, Salvador; https://ror.org/02jjdwm75
    Los profesores Celia de Anca y Salvador Aragón examinan cómo la colaboración se ha convertido en una de las consignas de la era digital y cómo cocrear, cotrabajar, compartir, codiseñar y copensar son hoy elementos clave de una nueva modalidad de actividad económica. En esta economía colaborativa, las personas organizan cada vez más sus vidas sobre una base colectiva, mezclando vida laboral y personal y operando en pequeños grupos similares a los clanes tradicionales capaces de funcionar con igual facilidad estando próximos o remotos, como si lo global y lo local fueran un continuum. Esta mentalidad colectiva ha cambiado nuestra visión tradicional de la diversidad, que ahora incluye también identidades culturales nuevas donde lo determinante no es solo el origen, también las aspiraciones. De Anca y Aragón llaman a esto «comportamiento tribal» y sugieren cómo canalizarlo en actividad económica, integrándolo de paso en sistemas que exploran y explotan con éxito nuevos escenarios y modelos de negocio.

    The Journey of Corporate Diversity in Tribal Times: Corporate Communities of Aspiration in MAPFRE
    (Springer, 2018-05-31) Anca, Celia de; Aragón, Salvador; Iñiguez, Santiago; Ichijo, Kazuo; https://ror.org/02jjdwm75
    Understanding diversity and its connection with identity in global organizations is particularly relevant at this moment in history, often described as tribal and whose driving force takes the form of a collective mindset, as illustrated by many terms that have recently entered into currency: co-creation, co-working, co-thinking or co-financing, along with working collectively, all key elements in the new forms of economic activity. The first step to correctly manage diversity is to understand what it means, as well as understand the different types of diversity that can be found in global organizations. This is covered in the first part of this chapter. We then move to the relationship between diversity and identity. Understanding identities helps us to use the existing tools correctly to effectively include diversity in corporate life. Next, we define how diversity fits in the new tribal context and how companies can use the emerging collective mindset as a driving force. The concept of collective individualism can help companies balance our desire for community with our individual needs. Finally, we describe the case of Spanish insurance company, MAPFRE, as an illustration of how corporate communities of aspiration can become a powerful tool for companies to channel the power of diversity into innovative energy.
