Journal Article
Fernando, D., Cohen, L., & Duberley, J. (2018). The problem of visibility of women in engineering and how they manage it. Harvard Business Review,

Being both visible and invisible: how women engineers manage this paradox and what it means for their careers Women engineers (and others in ultra masculine sectors) have a visibility problem. While they are often excessively visible in terms of thei... Read More about The problem of visibility of women in engineering and how they manage it.
