Women leaders explore personal and professional growth through
reflection and story Leading While Female means working with female
and male colleagues who are grounded in values for equity to
confront and close the gender equity gap. This guided reflection is
both a stand-alone book and a companion to the bestselling Leading
While Female: A Culturally Proficient Response to Gender Equity.
Combining the first-hand experiences of female leaders with
research on feminism, intersectionality, and leadership, Arriaga,
Stanley, and Lindseysupport readers to explore their personal and
professional cultural proficiencies. Readers will find: support to
identify barriers and formulate methods to overcome them,
opportunities to record their experiences following a narrative
protocol for their Stormy First Draft (SFD), a writing experience
derived from nine chapters of guided reflective journal entries,
leadership stories and figures to provide guidance and illustrate
the need for gender equity, and opportunities for males who are
mentors and allies to dismantle gender bias. Data show women are
doing the work of classroom teaching while disproportionately, men
are making leadership decisions. This interactive resource supports
women leaders to interrupt current dominant narratives with their
own stories of challenges and success.
Your take-action guide to gender equity First, just to be clear:
Leading While Female is not a book about how to get a leadership
job. Nor is it about fixing or transforming women into male
managers or mindsets. Instead, Arriaga, Stanley, and Lindsey's
bigger ambition is to help both women and men educational leaders
confront and close the gender equity gap-a gap that currently
denies highly qualified women and women of color opportunities to
better serve our millions of public school students. Designed as
both a personal and group discussion guide for taking action,
Leading While Female draws on the research of feminism,
intersectionality, educational leadership, and Cultural Proficiency
to help us all: Better understand the impact of faux narratives
that foster lack of confidence among girls and women Utilize the
Tools of Cultural Proficiency to examine barriers to overcome and
support functions to locate for your own career planning Learn from
the stories of women leaders who have confronted and overcome
barriers to career development, including women of color who were
targets of implicit bias Explore and expand the roles and
opportunities for our male colleagues to serve as allies,
advocates, and mentors. If we look at the data, we can safely say
women are doing the work of classroom teaching while
disproportionately, men are making administrative and leadership
decisions. Here at last is a resource for the breaking down the
barriers and leading the way for future generations of women
leaders.
