Women and Educational Leadership Women and Educational Leadership presents a new way of looking at leadership that is anchored in research on women leaders in education. The authors examine how successful women lead, and offer suggestions and ideas for developing and honing exemplary leadership practices. This groundbreaking book shows how the qualities that characterize women's approaches to leadership differ from traditional approaches--whether the traditional leader is a woman or a man. The authors reveal that women leaders tend to bring an instructional focus to leadership, include spiritual dimensions in their work, and strive for balance between the personal and professional. In addition, women leaders are more collaborative by nature and demonstrate a commitment to social justice. The authors include illustrative examples of leaders who have brought together diverse groups to work toward a common goal. This book will help the next generation fulfill the promise of a new tradition of leadership. Women and Educational Leadership is part of the Jossey-Bass Leadership Library in Education series.
