| Abstract: | A critical evaluation of the potential contribution of the executive's wife to her husband's career is a concern of corporations today. A study has revealed some of the background characteristics of executives' wives at three levels. Analysis reveals that corporations look for wives who are adaptable to new environments, are good hostesses, and will participate in civic and social affairs. Above all, they are looking for the woman who will grow intellectually and socially with her husband. The “outgrown” wife is to be avoided. The authors point out that wife analysis is more important in some companies than others, and indicate how wives can prepare for their increasingly demanding and complex role. |
