A narrative pastoral exploration into women's and men's experiences of patriarchy within business context

This exploration involves the influence of a system of patriarchy on both women and men in an inclusive way within business context.

The work attempts to move away from dualisms that stereotypically define gender according to patriarchy. The challenge of this work is to find ways of describing women and men that is less defined by gender and more about our similarities as human beings. It has been suggested in the research that the business environment is still a male dominated environment. It is therefore the intention of this work to encourage ways of defining ourselves that one person does not hold benefit one over another in an abusive way.

As the system of patriarchy has been endorsed by the church, the research considers how the pastoral therapist may be relevant to the business environment. / Philosophy, Practical and Systematic Theology / M. Th - Specialising in Pastoral Therapy
