"Although some progress has been made in recent decades in getting women into top positions in government, business, and education, there are persisting challenges with efforts to improve opportunities for women in leadership. This essential second edition of the Handbook of Research on Gender and Leadership comprises the latest research from the world's foremost scholars on women and leadership, exposing problems and offering both theoretical and practical solutions on strengthening the impact of women worldwide. This thoroughly revised Handbook provides a brief overview of the current position of women in leadership, explores theories (both established and emerging) focused specifically on women, and examines with both theoretical and empirical research some of the factors that influence women's motivations to lead. Updated chapters provide a much-needed focus on intersectionality and illustrate nuanced research frameworks. They delineate some of the most persistent barriers to women's leadership success and conclude with contemporary findings on how best to develop women leaders to improve their status worldwide. The Handbook of Research on Gender and Leadership will appeal to scholars and advanced students in leadership and entrepreneurship. It will be essential reading for leadership coaches, practitioners, and business people, particularly those who facilitate leadership programs for women"--
