Abstract:
Conceptualizing leadership with respect to specific contexts is critically important because women leaders have been successful in certain contexts such as corporations and to some extent political systems while continue to lag in others such as science and engineering. Each of the contexts examined in this book offers a new and critically important perspective on women leaders
