    Drawing on Joan Acker's theory of gendered organisation and the emphasis she places on the embeddedness of cultural assumptions related to gender difference in organisational structures and practices, this chapter explores how men and women experience work within a large organisation in Thailand. Adopting a gender-as-process approach to reveal how gender functions across multiple levels of social life with gender inequality arising out of a diverse range of factors, we draw on interviews with 72 men and women managers, to investigate the way in which our study organisation is gendered. Specifically, we argue that an organisational logic of family permeates the work context our interviewees are subjected to. While both men and women benefit from family-of-origin support provided by fathers, mothers, uncles and aunts, men can more easily build an organisational family by broadening their network connections to support their careers within the context of a Thai organisation.

    This study explores the effects of autonomous cars and how they may affect the design of transportation systems. The research investigated the determinants of consumer adoption of autonomous vehicles in Thailand. The research was driven by increasing environmental protection awareness and the need to conserve it through revolutionary technology. The study adopted the extended UTAUT model, where a quantitative method was adopted using primary data from 381 respondents. The results indicated that consumer adoption of autonomous vehicles in Thailand is influenced by performance expectancy, effort expectancy, facilitating conditions, environmental benefits, and purchase subsidy. The recommendations developed were that, to enhance the consumers’ intention to adopt autonomous vehicles, the concerned stakeholders should improve on aspects, such as the ability to improve job performance, increase productivity, ease of use, flexibility, clarity, and understanding, as well as improve social status. The government should also consider subsidizing autonomous vehicles as this would encourage consumption. A limitation of the study is the generalization of the findings as it is limited to Thailand.
