Abstract

Through observation, research, shared experiences, and collective wisdom gained from failure and success, this chapter explores best practice to help leaders navigate the challenges and demands that they encounter in their careers. The topics explored in this chapter are critical for males and females alike because they provide specific examples of best practice and research on how to become an effective leader. Yet they are especially relevant for women in leadership positions because data and scenarios are shared that shed light on the gender inequities that still exist in leadership today. Understanding the unique dynamics that women face and changing practices and approaches to address these issues are necessary. Each topic assists leaders in positioning themselves so they are optimizing their potential for success.
