Women and Leadership in Higher EducationĀ is the first volume in a series of books (Women and Leadership: Research, Theory, and Practice) that links theory, research, and practice of women’s leadership in various higher education contexts and offers suggestions for future leadership development strategies. This volume focuses on the field of higher education, particularly within the context of the United States – a sector that serves a majority of students at all degree levels who are women, yet lacks parity by women in senior leadership roles.
