Book Description
The gender binary presents an interesting paradox for leaders and raises the question for organizations on how to forge new paths and confront gender-based stereotypes in leadership. Many leaders outside of the gender binary remain absent from critical research and leadership studies. Challenging beliefs about leadership may allow organizations to break through the gender binary and embrace gender-fluid leadership styles. Societal expectations and stereotypes influence the journeys of all gender identities across professions. A broader understanding of the complexities surrounding gender and leadership is necessary to foster dialogue and insights for organizations seeking a more inclusive and equitable leadership landscape. Building Inclusive Leadership Beyond the Gender Binary explores how the gender binary impacts leadership and provides insight into first-person narratives and experiences of leaders that identify as gender fluid, non-binary, queer, or trans. These perspectives contribute to a broader understanding of the complexities surrounding gender and leadership, fostering dialogue and insights for readers seeking a more inclusive and equitable leadership landscape. This book covers topics such as gender equity, sexual identity, and organizational culture, and is a useful resource for administrators, education professionals, academicians, researchers, business owners, sociologists, and psychologists.

Author: Youssef Mahmoud
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 0755618556
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
What is the relationship between leadership and peace? What kind of leadership styles, processes and strategies are required to gain a deeper understanding of local context while at the same time maintaining the trust and cooperation of host authorities and other stakeholders on the ground? As concerns mount about the continued relevance and efficiency of UN peace operations, Youssef Mahmoud – who led several challenging peace missions in Africa – draws on many years of experience to offer insights into how political leadership might be exercised to help restore and nurture peace. Mahmoud makes the case for a paradigm shift in the type of leadership required to bring about strong, global diplomacy for peace. Making extensive use of the authors' unique personal experiences in Burundi, Central African Republic and Chad, the book offers an unparalleled insight into the leadership challenges of complex and often seemingly intractable conflict situations.

Handbook of the Sociology of Gender
Author: Barbara J. Risman
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319763334
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 541
Book Description
This handbook provides a comprehensive view of the field of the sociology of gender. It presents the most important theories about gender and methods used to study gender, as well as extensive coverage of the latest research on gender in the most important areas of social life, including gendered bodies, sexuality, carework, paid labor, social movements, incarceration, migration, gendered violence, and others. Building from previous publications this handbook includes a vast array of chapters from leading researchers in the sociological study of gender. It synthesizes the diverse field of gender scholarship into a cohesive theoretical framework, gender structure theory, in order to position the specific contributions of each author/chapter as part of a complex and multidimensional gender structure. Through this organization of the handbook, readers do not only gain tremendous insight from each chapter, but they also attain a broader understanding of the way multiple gendered processes are interrelated and mutually constitutive. While the specific focus of the handbook is on gender, the chapters included in the volume also give significant attention to the interrelation of race, class, and other systems of stratification as they intersect and implicate gendered processes.

How do students’ social identities, particularly their gender, influence their leadership practices and development? Using Kimberlé Crenshaw’s concept of intersectionality as a framework, this volume discusses existing and emergent research on gender and leadership and offers key strategies and on how leadership educators can engage students in these topics and provide contemporary critical thinking on how gender and leadership inform one another.

Contributing scholars share examples that are developmentally appropriate for high school and college students. This work is designed with leadership educators in mind, emphasizing theory into practice and highlighting the ways that leadership and gender can promote holistic, transformative learning for all students. The Jossey-Bass quarterly report series New Directions for Student Leadership explores leadership concepts and pedagogical topics of interest to high school and college leadership educators. Issues are grounded in scholarship and feature practical applications and best practices in youth and adult leadership education.
