Diaz-Iglesias, SusanaOrden-Cruz, CarmenBlanco-Gonzalez, Alicia2024-02-062024-02-0620239781668459812https://hdl.handle.net/10115/29783Although numerous studies on gender equality, and change management (CM) exist, the connection between the constructs remains largely unexplored. This paper aims to narrow the research gap that links elements of gender equality and the management of change experienced by companies in the Spanish financial sector when implementing their gender equality policies. Using a longitudinal analysis as a methodological approach, the content of the sustainability reports disclosed on the websites of the Spanish banks was analyzed. The results show preliminary indications that CM could play an important role in the development of gender policies in organizations. This study contributes to understanding how companies, in the financial sector, have developed their gender equality policies over the last decade, providing clues for the improvement of future gender policies.enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/bookPart10.4018/978-1-6684-5981-2.ch004info:eu-repo/semantics/restrictedAccess
