Abstract
Dr. Carol Sanchez, Professor of Seidman Management, surveyed students in seven Latin American countries to examine the relationship between national business environment and the perception of women as managers. Her research question is if differences in national business environment affect how people in those countries perceive women as managers. She is also interested in examining if gender, organizational trust, and organizational entrepreneurship affect people's perception of women as managers. As statistical consultants, our role was to assess the survey data, perform the appropriate analysis, and present final results for the questions of interest.
