Beschreibung:
Women's Leadership challenges traditional concepts of leadership that draw on the male experience and offers an alternative construction that emerges from the female experience. Highlighting leadership's social, cultural and political roots, the authors argue that leadership is neither a free floating nor a gender neutral concept.
Women's Leadership proposes sociologically informed, relational constructions of leadership and development through an examination of women leaders' leadership experiences from a range of sectors
