Leading While Female means working with female and male colleagues who are grounded in values for equity to confront and close the gender equity gap. Combining the first-hand experiences of female leaders with research on feminism, intersectionality, and leadership, Arriaga, Stanley, and Lindsey support readers to explore their personal and professional cultural proficiencies. Readers will find: support to identify barriers and formulate methods to overcome them, opportunities to record their experiences following a narrative protocol for their Stormy First Draft (SFD), a writing experience derived from nine chapters of guided reflective journal entries, leadership stories and figures to provide guidance and illustrate the need for gender equity, and opportunities for males who are mentors and allies to dismantle gender bias.
