The principles of femininity have been helpful to created modern policies of corporate structures and their relations with their employees in the conditions of today's constantly changing environment.

The movement that seeks to create equal opportunities for both male and female, as well as critical the masculine-bearing culture, has transpired to become not only a social movement but an organizational phenomenon as well. Feminist perspectives if incorporated in organizations are able to ensure equal opportunities for all while working hard to avoid the biases. This is especially pertinent in today's organizational functioning environment since organizations aim at leveling playing field for all employees.

Over the years, traditional organizational structures have aligned themselves to patriarchal values where male executives and employees are recruited and rewarded more, few women ascend the corporate ladder and women's employee benefits do not allow for these to be achieved. However, feminism in the twentieth century created increasing awareness regarding the demand to confront and transform those traditional values. Feminism, in addition to advocating equal rights for women also conforms to intersectionality, which is a concept that points out that issues of discrimination are related, interconnected and are mutually reinforcing. Today, many organizations are embracing feminism to bring in equality policies into the workplace. These improvements go beyond simple wage equality or the increase in the number of women at the top positions, for they mean the formation of conditions at work which will allow people to thrive regardless of gender, marital status, or past. With such inclusive measures included, organizations are discovering that they not only foster creativity and satisfaction among employees while furthering the cause of the organizations to remain competitive.
