Candice,
Take the case of an alpha male such as Eliot Spitzer. Great crusader against illegal prostitution and corrupt wall-streeters. A superman amoung men, yet the perfect picture of corruption himself. Good for him – not for other men. Not discounting other psychological issues the guy had this is only another type of example of male c0ckblocking.
Utilizing women to create “feminized cultures” works because women also tend more toward “loyality” to an employer. Women also may have more to lose by not doing so. There are so many dynamics.
There are plenty mentoring/coaching orgs who mentor both men and women equally. Women typically have been more receptive toward utilizing them. Men often dislike asking for direction or help of any kind, whereas women have no problem doing so.
