Book Gender  Communication  and the Leadership Gap

Download or read book Gender Communication and the Leadership Gap written by Carolyn M. Cunningham and published by IAP. This book was released on 2017-09-01 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gender, Communication, and the Leadership Gap is the sixth volume in the Women and Leadership: Research, Theory, and Practice series. This cross-disciplinary series, from the International Leadership Association, enhances leadership knowledge and improves leadership development of women around the world. The purpose of this volume is to highlight connections between the fields of communication and leadership to help address the problem of underrepresentation of women in leadership. Readers will profit from the accessible writing style as they encounter cutting-edge scholarship on gender and leadership. Chapters of note cover microaggressions, authentic leadership, courageous leadership, inclusive leadership, implicit bias, career barriers and levers, impression management, and the visual rhetoric of famous women leaders. Because women in leadership positions occupy a contested landscape, one goal of this collection is to clarify the contradictory communication dynamics that occur in everyday interactions, in national and international contexts, and when leadership is digital. Another goal is to illuminate the complexities of leadership identity, intersectionality, and perceptions that become obstacles on the path to leadership. The renowned thinkers and scholars in this volume hail from both Leadership and Communication disciplines. The book begins with Sally Helgesen and Brenda J. Allen. Helgesen, co-author of The Female Vision: Women’s Real Power at Work, discusses the two-fold challenge women face as they struggle to articulate their visions. Her chapter offers six practices women can use to relieve this struggle. Allen, author of the groundbreaking book, Difference Matters: Communicating Social Identity, discusses the implications of how inclusive leadership matters to women and what it means to think about women as people who embody both dominant and non-dominant social identity categories. She then offers practical communication strategies and an intersectional ethic to the six signature traits of highly inclusive leaders. Each chapter includes practical solutions from a communication and leadership perspective that all readers can employ to advance the work of equality. Some solutions will be of use in organizational contexts, such as leadership development and training initiatives, or tools to change organizational culture. Some solutions will be of use to individuals, such as how to identify and respond productively to micro-aggressions or how to be cautious rather than optimistic about practicing authentic leadership. The writing in this volume also reflects a range of styles, from in-depth scholarship that produces new knowledge to shorter forums that feature interesting ideas worth considering.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2014 in the subject Psychology - Work, Business, Organisation, grade: 10 (A) with honors, University of Ramon Llull (Organizational Psychology), language: English, abstract: The objective of this study is to evaluate the gender and cultural differences in the perception of a male and a female leader in a feedback situation. The research is based upon considerations of a literature review in the fields of gender bias and stereotype conducted previously. Subjects from Spain and Germany were asked to evaluate a director (male or female) of a fictive feedback situation that was described before a short questionnaire. The questions of the questionnaire were based on previous research and findings of the literature review. Results show no significance differences in the evaluation across genders and cultures. We tested if previous experience with a woman leader was related to a higher evaluation of the female leader finding no significant relationship. We tested if there was a relationship between the previous experience with a female leader and the preference to work for a certain leader’s gender finding no significant relationship. Taking into consideration the subgroup “previous experience with a female leader”, we analyzed if personnel responsibility was related to the preference to work for a certain leader’s gender finding no relationship. Results from the study show that gender, culture and previous experience with a female leader had no influence on the leader’s evaluation. A discussion with possible interpretations of the findings and implication for further research follows.

Book Women and Leadership

Download or read book Women and Leadership written by Julia Gillard and published by Random House Australia. This book was released on 2020 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An inspirational and practical book written by two high-achieving women, sharing the experience and advice of some of our most extraordinary women leaders, in their own words. As a result of their broad experience on the world stage in politics, economics and global not-for-profits, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala and Julia Gillard have some strong ideas about the impact of gender on the treatment of leaders. Women and Leadership takes a consistent and comprehensive approach to teasing out what is different for women who lead. Almost every year new findings are published about the way people see women leaders compared with their male counterparts. The authors have taken that academic work and tested it in the real world. The same set of interview questions was put to each leader in frank face-to-face interviews. Their responses were then used to examine each woman's journey in leadership and whether their lived experiences were in line with or different from what the research would predict. Women and Leadership presents a lively and readable analysis of the influence of gender on women's access to positions of leadership, the perceptions of them as leaders, the trajectory of their leadership and the circumstances in which it comes to an end. By presenting the lessons that can be learned from women leaders, Julia and Ngozi provide a road map of essential knowledge to inspire us all, and an action agenda for change that allows women to take control and combat gender bias. Featuring Jacinda Ardern, Hillary Clinton, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Theresa May, Michelle Bachelet, Joyce Banda, Erna Solberg, Christine Lagarde and more.

Book excerpt: An exciting new book exploring why we have not seen the enduring changes that were once optimistically anticipated.

Book Gender Dimensions in Leadership

Download or read book Gender Dimensions in Leadership written by S. Drijfhout and published by . This book was released on 2020-10-22 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As ironic as it may seem, treating people kindly, fairly and humanely could just be the most innovative and competitive thing corporate leaders can do. Research links gender equality and a sense of belonging to thriving workplaces and better business outcomes. Leaders are critical to the success of DE&I. But much of the current rhetoric around 'fixing' women and blaming men, is failing everyone. Providing a GPS for everyone navigating gender bias and non-inclusivity in the workplace, this book has been designed to educate corporate leaders and coaches about the roadblocks to progress. It's also been designed to help DE&I and HR within organizations. Each chapter takes a deep dive into specific issues, business case studies, and ends with key self-reflective coaching questions. "The Covid pandemic has been a brutal stress-test of leadership, ... Broadening the leadership debate to bring in crucial issues of power, purpose and ethnic diversity as well as gender, Sarah Drijfhout's timely intervention ranks as an essential guide for leaders to an unfolding post-covid, post-#MeToo, post-BLM world." Global Peter Drucker Forum, former Observer's Management Columnist "A must read for Investors, Boards, CEOs and all managerial personnel in the workplace." Harvard Medical School, Department of Psychiatry "... a deep dive into underlying cultural and psychological barriers to equality in leadership."ICD International Business School, ParisWhen organizations ask us to only coach their women for leadership roles, they are on the wrong track. Policies which target women in isolation miss the point of equality and inclusion. Much of the gender inequality rhetoric has been focused on white women. This has been to the exclusion of others: women of color, men as distinct individuals, instead of a monolithic group, and other minorities. Denial around institutional and social issues across gender is leading to poor outcomes in many corporate entities. And while white men mostly have the power and influence in corporate leadership, better attempts should be made at properly engaging them, and everyone, in the gender equality discussion. "This book takes a conversation that can be uncomfortable for most male leaders to have and makes it easy for them to become part of that conversation, while helping their organizations become stronger in the process." Centre for Executive Coaching"Sarah Drijfhout insightfully explores the reality that men lose too when they lead in the absence of women peers." Inclusion Leader, OhioIf you want to lead and coach in an outstanding way, you need to understand the gender dimensions in leadership. This book will dispel many of the myths around gender and help you understand how perceived gender norms impact everyone's ability to show up authentically and productively. If you are a leader looking to develop once described as 'softer skills', now regarded as essential skills for corporate leaders, this book educates you on why gender plays a huge role in that, and why you need to understand that role. Reviewing the most up-to-date research, using real-world data, based on dozens of interviews with global corporate leaders, Gender Dimensions in Leadership is an excellent resource for accelerating your inclusivity goals as a leader. It gives you the support you need to solve the gender-equity-in-leadership challenge. It's a hugely comprehensive review of material on the topics of gender and leadership, and includes many scientific studies, leading academics' and thought leaders' observations, business practitioners' experiences and global consultancy survey data. A must-have resource for leaders!
