Advancing Women In Leadership
Preview Life is difficult and full of many challenges no matter what career you hold, your age, where you come from, or who you are. We devote this issue to the exploration of concerns. Can you be an effective principal when you don't smoke, swing a club, or ride a Harley? (Jacqueline E. Jacobs) is about segregation between male and female school administrators and the importance of camaraderie. Crossing Borders: An Analysis of the Characteristics and Attributes of Female Public School Principals (Leslie A. Holtkamp) addresses the reluctancy of women to pursue educational, administrative leadership positions. Elizabeth Hills and Leonie Rowan are from Rockhampton, Australia. They wrote Feminist Academics as Nomadic Subjects: Reconceptualizing Women in Universities that explores the politics and practices of nomadism with the example of their university--Centeral Queensland University. Perceptions of Gender Differences in the Real Estate Profession (Karen Schmelzkopf and Donald Moliver) evaluates the real estate profession and explains how a formerly male-dominated profession, or any profession, can be changed by realizing the potential characteristics for women within any occupation. Reimagining our Academic Journeys through Spiritual Metaphor (Michelle Collay, Sandra Gehrig, Valerie Lesniak, and Carol Mayer) is a moving and touching paper on the spiritual and intellectual journey of women based on their own personal trials. When Women Educators are Commuters in Commuter Marriages (Sandy Harris, Sandra Lowery, and Michael Arnold) addresses the modern problem of women who commute and juggle family and career. By facing, talking about, and addressing fears and concerns, Becky Wai-Ling Packard makes us aware that anything is possible with her paper entitled: Women Who Continue to Pursue Science: Motivated not only Despite but also by Concerns about the Future . Our intent is that this journal is viewed as a professional publication site for scholarly inquiry and perspectives that promote gender equity and advance women in leadership. It is our hope that you find this issue of Advancing Women in Leadership thought provoking, enjoyable, and that you look forward to subsequent issues. Suggestions for improvement, encouragement, and submission for upcoming issues are welcomed and appreciated.
