Discovering Middle Space: Distinctions of Sex and Gender in Resilient Leadership
Christman, Dana E.; McClellan, Rhonda L.
Journal of Higher Education, v83 n5 p648-670 Sep-Oct 2012
This study contrasts findings from two Delphi studies that investigated how women and men who are higher education academic administrators in educational leadership programs and colleges define and describe resiliency in their leadership. Using gender theories, both studies revealed a multidimensional gendering of leadership, a gendering more complicated than the social constraints of biological sex. (Contains 1 table and 2 notes.)
