In this book, Dr. Rudo Tsemunhu analyzes the
different narratives of three women in educational
leadership in post colonial Africa. Through their
stories she illustrates how, in spite of traditional
constraints and social challenges, female leaders
astutely weave together their personal initiatives,
professional experiences and passion to put forth a
meaningful contribution to education in post colonial
Africa.
These Narratives identify a common leadership
typology, highlighting five common themes:
Leadership as social welfare
Education as a process
Consensus versus independent leadership
Age, Gender, & Authority
Creation of a new school environment
Narratives of Women in Educational Leadership brings
together research, literature and real, moving case
studies to act as a model which may be relevant to
other areas of human experiences and parts of the world.
