Probing Educational Management as Gendered: An Examination through Model and Metaphor.
Enomoto, Ernestine K.
Teachers College Record, v102 n2 p375-97 Apr 2000
To explore the gendered construction of educational management, this article utilizes Joan Scott's (1986) analytic model, which distinguishes gender as sexual difference, and deconstructs two dominant metaphors to expose gendered assumptions in alternative images of leadership. The metaphors are gender-specific (leader as mother) and gender-neutral (leader as visionary). (AA)
