Leading During Covid-19: Women In The Agricultural Industry, Kathryn Gardner
Agricultural Education, Communications and Technology Undergraduate Honors Theses
There is no doubt COVID-19 has forever shaped the way our organizations operate, and leaders emerge in times of crisis.

Literature and historical evidence show that women face significant barriers and bias compared to their male counterparts when pursuing leadership roles. This study sought to identify how women in agriculture, a male dominated industry, have encountered circumstances of obstacles or bias in their careers as leaders, as well as how they …

Recipe For Success: Behavioral Ingredients For Superior Performing Leaders, Linda M. Pittenger
National Training Aircraft Symposium (NTAS)

Antioch University Full-Text Dissertations & Theses

Portraiture allowed for the voice of the researcher everywhere: in the assumptions, preoccupations, and frameworks brought to the inquiry; in the questions asked; in the data gathered; in the …
