This empowering volume presents current empirical findings and rich
personal insights into the evolving challenges women face in
attaining-and thriving in-leadership positions. Contributors add
new voices to emerging and familiar topics, including leadership
styles and traits, growth and learning experiences within career
paths, mentoring and entrepreneurial aspects of leadership, and
workplace and societal resistance to women in roles of power.
Representative first-person accounts shed significant light on
real-world double standards and double binds (including the unique
obstacles faced by minority women), why the glass ceiling still
exists, and steps still needed to dismantle it. Coverage also
addresses related legal issues, such as the ongoing fight against
pay inequities and conflicts between the DeVos rules and Title IX
regulations in the schools. Included among the topics: * * Turn
ah-ha moments into pivotal learning. * The important role of women
in social entrepreneurship. * Focus group becomes support group:
women in educational leadership. * Issues confronting women leaders
in academia: the quest for equality. * Leadership means using the
courts to demand equal enforcement of and protection for women's
constitutional and civil rights. * Organizations concerned with
women and leadership. Whether one's interest is local or global,
scholars and students in courses on leadership, career development,
and women's studies will find Women and Leadership inspiring and
stimulating in myriad domains, from research and business to
politics and policy.
