The issue of gender diversity in feminized sectors on the example of two selected organizations and its relation to organizational culture

The diploma thesis focuses on the topic of gender diversity and its influence on organizational culture in feminized sectors. The aim is to find out how gender diversity affects the everyday functioning of teams in two specific organizations – a child protection authority (OSPOD) and a café. The thesis examines what supports or hinders greater gender balance, what benefits and challenges diversity brings, and what role gender stereotypes play in the workplace. The theoretical part provides a basic overview of gender, diversity, organizational culture, and gender segregation. The practical part is based on qualitative research and offers insights into the perception of diversity in both organizations, its benefits and challenges, barriers to male entry into traditionally feminized sectors, and the impacts of gender homogeneity on the work environment and team dynamics.
