In the ever-evolving landscape of academia, women are increasingly taking center stage, reshaping the leadership narrative in higher education and K-12 institutions. The early female scholars and educators played a pivotal role in advancing women’s education as they fought for equality resulting in an increasing number of women in administrative roles, such as university presidents, deans, and department heads. They have faced ongoing challenges such as gender bias, the glass ceiling, and work-life balance issues. Institutions can foster greater gender equality and empowerment through strategic initiatives and policies.
Cultivating Inclusive Educational Leadership Ecosystems: Women Trailblazers and the Path Forward delves into women's dynamic and transformative role in shaping higher education. This comprehensive work provides actionable strategies for fostering gender equality in educational leadership. Covering topics such as mentorship, glass ceiling, and state takeovers, this book is an excellent resource for educators, educational leaders, school administrators, policymakers, professionals, researchers, scholars, academicians, and more.
