Next, scholars discuss novel research that can guide women in navigating their journeys to leadership, including on followership, competition, representation of women in politics, and the role of biology in leadership. This must-have volume offers cutting-edge perspectives and a guide for women to navigate their own journeys to impactful leadership.

Recenzii

"Tan and DeFrank-Cole’s edited volume is an essential read for anyone interested in gender and leadership. Its chapters range from women’s stories of their career journeys, to presentations of important studies, to new explanations of why there are too few female leaders."
—Alice H. Eagly, Northwestern University, USA
"Women’s Leadership Journeys is a treasure trove for women at every level seeking to give scope to their talents and reach their full potential. The honest insights the contributors share about their rich and varied paths to extraordinary success teach a fundamental truth: that resilient women who are mindful of their strengths and unafraid to articulate them––and willing to take risks––can transform organizations, institutions and our common culture."
—Sally Helgesen, independent practitioner and author of How Women Rise, The Female Vision, and The Female Advantage
"Despite a half century of equal opportunity legislation and initiatives, women’s representation in leadership positions remains anything but equal. This book offers a wide range of important insights about why such underrepresentation is a serious problem, and how we can more effectively address it."
—Deborah L. Rhode, Stanford University, USA
