Zusammenfassung

Obwohl Unternehmen verschiedenste Maßnahmen zur Förderung von Frauen in Führungspositionen anbieten, zeigen sich bisher kaum Erhöhungen der Frauenanteile in Führungspositionen. Um die potenzielle Erklärung, dass die Maßnahmen bisher noch ungenügend bei Mitarbeitern ankommen, zu untersuchen, werden in diesem Kapitel die Bekanntheit und Akzeptanz dieser Maßnahmen analysiert. Die Ergebnisse der Untersuchung eines repräsentativen Samples zeigen, dass auch wenn die Maßnahmen bisher eher weniger bekannt sind, sie durchaus akzeptiert werden: Die Teilnahmebereitschaft, die erwartete Wirksamkeit und die positive Signalwirkung einer Teilnahme an den Maßnahmen wurden generell als hoch eingeschätzt. Außerdem zeigt die Untersuchung von Geschlechterunterschieden, dass Männer die Bekanntheit zwar höher einschätzen als Frauen, im Vergleich aber weniger bereit zu einer Teilnahme sind, die Teilnahme als weniger wirksam und die Signalwirkung als weniger positiv einschätzen. Je jünger die Menschen sind, desto eher kennen sie die Maßnahmen, aber desto weniger hoch schätzen sie die Teilnahmebereitschaft und teilweise auch die positive Signalwirkung ein. Beim Bildungsabschluss zeigt sich ein positiver Zusammenhang zwischen der Höhe des Bildungsabschlusses und allen vier Einschätzungen in Bezug auf Bekanntheit, Teilnahmebereitschaft, Wirksamkeit und positiver Signalwirkung. Insgesamt geben diese Ergebnisse Unternehmen und Förderern aus Politik und Gesellschaft wichtige Indikationen, für welche Maßnahmen sie für welche Zielgruppen die Bekanntheit und Akzeptanz steigern sollten.
