Overview
This publication would be of great benefit to current and future higher education administrators. A commonly noted roadblock to the upper ranks of leadership in higher education administration is the inability to shatter the glass ceiling (Washington, 2010). As the old male-dominated workplace slowly began to transform, Fortune 500 companies and government agencies had hoped that the rise of female leaders would create a gentler kind of office, based on communication, team building and personal development. But instead, some women are finding their professional lives dominated by mean girls" with something to prove and a precarious sense of security, which often leaves aspiring female leaders asking themselves, "Where is the sisterhood?" This book would demonstrate the need for addressing and diminishing gender bias in higher education which could lead to increased retention of female faculty and provide increased leadership opportunities for women in academia. In addition, this book will help higher education administrators realize young women in academia need more support"--
