Women's leadership
\"This volume is distinctive because it explores different concepts of leadership, seeks to challenge traditional concepts, and to explode common myths. In contrast to the traditional male, hierarchical, value free and organisational bound construction of leadership, this text presents an alternative construction that is female, non-hierarchical and underpinned and driven by values, rooted in community and beyond the boundaries of traditional organizations. This volume uses examples from research with leading women to portray that leadership is not a floating or external concept, but has tangible, social, cultural and political roots and anchors\"--Provided by publisher.

Race, Gender, and Leadership
Much has been written about a model of leadership that emphasizes women's values and experiences, that is in some ways distinct from male models of leadership. This book redirects the focus to a view of leadership as a multicultural phenomenon that moves beyond dualistic notions of \"masculine\" and \"feminine\" leadership, and focuses more specifically on leadership as the management of meaning, including the meanings of the notion of \"organizational leader.\"
This volume focuses on leadership \"traditions\" revealed in the history of Black women in America and exemplified in the leadership approaches of 15 African American women executives who came of age during the civil rights and feminist movements of the 1960's and 1970's and climbed to the top of major U.S. organizations. It advances a vision of organizational leadership that challenges traditional masculine and feminine notions of leadership development and practice, providing insights on organizational leadership in the era of post-industrialization and globalization. Additionally, by placing African American women at the center of analysis, this book provides insights into the ways in which race and gender structure key leadership processes in today's diverse and changing workplace. It is a must-read for scholars and researchers in organizational communication, management, leadership, African American studies, and related areas.

‘No, I do not suffer from it’: the analysis of the manipulation of the subjectivity of the executive woman in the rise of the career
The insertion of women in executive positions has grown, but they need to adapt to the impositions of management to achieve and preserve a successful career. In this context, this article sought to analyze the manipulation of the subjectivity of executive women in career advancement. For this purpose, a descriptive study was carried out with 14 executive women working in national and multinational companies, with the information being analyzed using the content analysis technique. The results show that the executives conform to the impositions of the position and try to adapt themselves to exemplary behavior. They create defense strategies to deal with disposability, personal resignations and justify taking their place. With a support team to handle their demands, they deny the labyrinths of the trajectory, evidencing the presence of the queen bee phenomenon, and reproduce a behavior that privileges masculinities in organizations.
