Category : Arbeidsverdeling volgens geslag
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
This book was written as a response to that vast quantity of literature published on administration and adminstrators which purports to be comprehensive. A more honest description of this work might describe it as research and writing on the behavior and characteristics of male administrators. This book seeks to reconsider what we know about organizational behavior. It asks us to first lean of the world of women in schools and then to speculate upon what what would happen if took that world into account when we developed theory and practice in school administration.

Gender Equity in Educational Leadership: Perceptions of Female Administrators on the Role of Gender in the Career Advancement Opportunities in Public School Systems Across the Northeastern Region of the United States

Category : Career development
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Gender equity remains an evolving issue within the United States, in spite of the long history of women's rights legislation, including the 1986 ruling by the Supreme Court that a work environment can be declared hostile or abusive because of discrimination based on sex. In the field of education, women are a majority; however, they are a minority in the upper echelons of educational leadership. The purpose of this study is to examine this ranking disparity and investigate the role of gender in career advancement opportunities in public school systems across the United States. This research is a qualitative phenomenological study, guided by equity theory. It utilizes an interview protocol and interview questions to investigate how female school administrators view the role of gender in career advancement opportunities across the Northeastern Region of the United States. The fourteen participants for this study were selected via purposive sampling. Six of the fourteen participants were elementary school principals, six were middle school principals, one was a superintendent, and one was a deputy superintendent. The participants were located in Washington D.C., Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Connecticut and Rhode Island. Their years of experience in education ranged from fifteen to thirty-two years and their years of administrative experiences ranged from three to twenty-four years. The research determined that societal perceptions of women's roles in society, unwritten gender-specific requirements of administrative jobs, the patriarchal structure of the American society, discriminatory hiring practices, the glass ceiling effect, old boy networks and supports for men, and lack of female mentorship have perpetuated a system within which the career paths of male administrators are uninterrupted while the career path of females are inhibited.

Career Barriers and Facilitators

Book Description
The purpose of this research study was to acquire and explore specific factors that impacted the career pathways of female administrators within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. This qualitative study was conducted using female administrators affiliated with school districts associated with one intermediate unit in Pennsylvania. The survey instrument and interview questions were adapted from a previous study. Feedback from an expert panel was also used. Seventy-seven female administrators were invited to participate in the study. Surveys that included multiple choice items and open-ended questions were completed by 31 female administrators (40.25%) within participating districts affiliated with the intermediate unit. Six female school leaders participated in the interviews. Several factors emerged as perceived career barriers and career facilitators along the career pathways of female school leaders. The greatest career barrier was the self-imposed work-family conflicts that resulted from "longer hours" and "mother guilt". The most significant career facilitators were spousal support, role models, and mentors. While the female school leaders acknowledged the existence of social and organizational career barriers, overall, the women did not indicate their career pathways had been impacted by such factors. Instead, results from this study suggested that since the barriers are highly personalized and self-imposed, overcoming career complications are dependent on the individual aspiring female school leader.
