There is a plethora of literature regarding the metaphorical glass ceiling and its impact on certain individuals, namely, women and people of colour. The glass ceiling represents subtle barriers that are found in organisations, such as systemic processes and discrimination that are based on preconceived ideologies concerning gender and ethnicity, and these obstacles severely restrict career progression. This thesis investigates a potential glass ceiling for Samoans at work in NZ organisations based on the minimal representation of Samoans in senior management positions, and their over-representation in laborious, manual-type, lowskilled jobs. This study uncovered the career barriers that presented dilemmas and the strategies and facilitators that were used as career mechanisms for access to upper management roles. These facilitators provide a solid foundation as a starting point for other Samoans to consider in their career trajectories. Undertaken in the major cities of NZ, and employing a qualitative Pacific Research Paradigm, Teu le va methodology, and semi-structured interviews, this study focused on the experiences of 31 Samoan women and men in senior managerial occupations to reveal their career hurdles and success enablers. The findings indicated that Samoans juggle two separate cultures and values side-by-side, that is, Samoan and Palagi (Western-NZ). In some cases, these values are diametrically opposed to one's belief system and identity, as outlined in misinterpreted social-interactions in team meetings and dialogues. Moreover, racial discrimination, tokenism, and labour market segmentation barriers continued to thwart their efforts at accessing top positions. Indigenous Samoan hindrances included unequal power relations, intra-ethnic racism and gender bias from other Samoans that led to the manifestation of the 'U'u Coconut Crab Syndrome.' Career strategies, facilitators, and coping mechanisms comprised of 'voice' and 'authentic self,' higher levels of efficacy, positive self-talk and implementing legacies for the next generation of Samoans. In addition, the indigenous Samoan values of va (relational spaces) and tautua (honourable services) are akin to relationship-building and altruistic orientations that enhance personal attributes and motivation at work. Mentorshop and cross-race iv mentoring, higher education and job mobility strengthened career profiles and are recommended as important antecedents to career advancement. This thesis concludes with an array of theoretical contributions and practical implications, the limitations, and areas for future research, and a personal reflection of the research journey

Breaking Through Your Own Glass Ceiling offers simple, proven prosperity practices to address power dynamics faced by BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) and other underrepresented communities. You can begin today to identify and uproot unhealthy patterns and replace them with consistent thoughts and behaviors to embrace a full-hearted life—even in environments that do not support your well-being. Many people attempt to navigate glass ceilings by reading self-help and motivational books that send the message that vision boards, meditation apps, and affirmations will compensate for exclusionary policies and laws. This book rejects the “one size fits all” approach to career development and self-care that leads people to internalize their own glass ceiling. If you are ready to have a full-hearted breakthrough, this book can be your daily guide and inspiration.

Scientific Essay from the year 2009 in the subject Gender Studies, grade: 13, , language: English, abstract: The glass ceiling is still a big and unresolved issue in workplaces for women and minorities. To give the readers a better understanding what the Glass ceiling is, this narrative will first define the term and then outline the different levels of barriers which are defined by the Federal Glass Ceiling Commission. To have a more updated study, there is also one from 2003 made by Woman in U.S. Corporate Leadership. After knowing the barriers which helps building up the Glass ceiling, the paper will examine the Glass Ceiling’s impact has on women’s lives. There are ways about how companies can help their female employees to break the glass ceiling and two of them will be introduced. However, even after breaking the glass ceiling, the fight of women is not really over because then there appears a wall which prevents them from participating equally in the upper management compared to men. To understand the topic better, a critique of the Glass ceiling, which states that it has never existed, will explain.

This book explores the question of whether the conceptualisation of New Zealand as a welcoming nation is accurate. Examining historical and contemporary narratives of migrant and refugee discrimination, it considers the economic, social, political, cultural and historical contexts from which discrimination emerges and its repercussions. Alert to race and ethnicity, gender, age, class, religion and inter-ethnic migrant conflict, this volume traverses an array of discriminatory practices – including xenophobia, racism and sectarianism – and responses to them. With rich evidence, fascinating new insights and engagement comparatively and transnationally with global themes of exploitation, exclusion and inequalities, Narratives of Migrant and Refuge Discrimination in New Zealand will appeal to scholars across the humanities and social sciences with interests in migration and diaspora studies, race and ethnicity and refugee studies.

Breaking the Glass Ceiling documents the achievements of three leaders in Caribbean nurshing at the time of the nascent struggle for indigenous leadership in all areas of West Indian society. It is a narrative of the lives of three extraordinary women who gained both regional and international recognition: Dame Nita Barrow of Barbados, Berenice Dolly of Trinidad and Tobago, and Dr. Mary Sievwright of Jamaica. A feminist and colonialist theoretical perspective is used for the exploration of political, social and economic structures of the societies prior and during the nurses' era in order to provide a context for their achievements and contributions. They were bright, black women who embraced each challenge that came their way as an opportunity for growth. This growth was not for personal gain or self-aggrandizement but for the good of womankind and the nursing profession...The single common distinguishing feature of these three women was their selfless devotion to service. They worked relentlessly to improve the image of nursing, the nursing profession, and the status of women. Each one did so in her own unique way, and each had a deep, abiding religious faith. Their stories depict their different approaches to their service to women generally and nursing specifically, whether it was in the international arena, in the Caribbean setting or in their own native land. They were outstanding role models. They rose to prominence in a society in which racism, gender and class distinctions existed and did so with continued vitality and political savvy then most women at the time. They defied tradition within a traditional woman's occupation. They blazed the way for black women and nurses in particular to reach for the top. They were the first black women in nursing in the Caribbean to receive national and international acclaim, albeit not all to the same extent, and were the acknowledged role models for black nurses and women in the region.
