Achieving greater diversity and gender balance in the workforce has proved a challenging goal, despite concerted efforts on the part of individuals, institutions, and governments around the world. Many men remain reluctant to enter the profession, and once they choose this work, many leave. This book explores how men in the field make their career decisions to remain in or leave the profession. Taking a broad international perspective and exploring the role of gender in these career decisions, contributors from around the globe unpack how gender concepts influence men's career trajectories. Through their collaborative research, the team of 17 gender and early childhood researchers investigate various critical and relevant factors such as professionalisation, workplace environment, leadership, day to day interactions in the workplace, societal considerations, internal motivations, agency, masculinities, and critical moments in career decision making. Using cultural, racial, ethnic, and social class lenses to examine men's career decisions over their professional lives, the contributors' unique approach uncovers the complexity of the issue and offers evidence-based recommendations for policy both on national and local levels. These include practical suggestions to directors and managers who care about achieving a gender-mixed workforce. Accessible and enlightening, this is a unique resource for scholars, policy makers, and any others in the education community who support a gender balance the inclusion of men in early childhood education"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Male early childhood teachers. 650 0 $a Male child care workers. 650 0 $a Sex differences in education. 700 1 $a Brody, David L. $c (Teacher educator) $e editor. 700 1 $a Emilsen, Kari, $e editor. 700 1 $a Rohrmann, Tim, $d 1963- $e editor. 700 1 $a Warin, Jo, $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Exploring career trajectories of men in the early childhood education and care workforce $b 1. $d New York : Routledge, 2020. $z 9781003048473 $w (DLC) 2020043334 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240403012846.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C9E7F5F2652711EBAC2324F85BECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
