The Synergistic Leadership Theory: Contextualizing Multiple Realities Of Female Leaders, Genevieve Brown, Beverley J. Irby

Journal of Women in Educational Leadership

The authors describe the Synergistic Leadership Theory (SLT), which includes four factors: Leadership Behavior, Organizational Structure, External Factors, and Beliefs, Attitudes, and Values. The factors are described and contributions to existing leadership theory are explained. They further apply the factors to four cases in order to illustrate the application of the theory to leadership practice. The authors conclude that SLT, in including the female perspective, provides an expanded framework for taking a macro-perspective of the interactions among beliefs, external forces, people, and organizations.

Women, Education And The Law - The Children "Left Behind", Patricia F. First

Journal of Women in Educational Leadership

The No Child Left Behind Act is the newest revised version of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, first enacted in 1965 and last reauthorized in 1994. The Act further expands the federal role in education and provides the largest dollar increase ever in federal education aid. The provisions getting the most attention concern the testing of all students in grades 3 to 8 in reading and math, participation in the National Assessment of Educational Progress, accountability systems for progression toward academically "proficient" status for all students, changes in Title I state share and use of funds and local targeting …

Review Of Standing At The Crossroads: Next Steps For High-Achieving Women By Marian N. Ruderman And Patricia J. Ohlott., Jean M. Haar

Journal of Women in Educational Leadership

Standing at the crossroads: Next steps for high-achieving women was written to address the changes occurring for woman managers. Rudennan and Ohlott, professionals in the field of leadership development, noted that significant changes occurred for women managers from the 1980s to the 1990s. They observed two changes: First, although the number of women in top positions stayed low, the number in mid level positions grew significantly. Second, the issues for women changed from concern about "gaining access to the boardroom to gaining comfort in the personal life choices associated with a managerial career" (p. 2). Women reached a point …

Soul Sisters: Origins And Accomplishments Of A Unique Partnership, Linda L. Lyman

Journal of Women in Educational Leadership

Leadership in poverty schools is essential for success. This article chronicles the partnership of a principal and a speech and language pathologist who have, together and with some angst, brought teachers in the school together to link language development with reading success. Since 1994, Aurther Perkins and Pat Lindberg have refined a program that is based on common beliefs that children can be successful in schools, that poor parents care much about their children's victories at school, and that reading is the key to success in every subject. Clearly, this documentation of a successful collaboration between a content expert and …

Standing Side By Side With 'The Brethren': A Study Of Leadership From Female High School Principals' Perspectives, Dru Mcgovern-Robinett, Martha N. Ovando

Journal of Women in Educational Leadership

Educational administration has long been a masculinist enterprise. There is a significant theoretical gap and lack of explanations grounded in the experience and language of women (Blackmore, 1993; Shakeshaft, 1987). In addressing that gap related to the experiences of female educational leaders, predominant research on women has primarily surrounded their dilemmas rather than their contributions (Papalewis, 1995). This study addressed both the challenges and contributions of women principals serving in male-dominated, secondary school arenas. We explored the nature of the leadership experiences of three female high school principals by focusing on the perceptions of leadership from the standpoint of female …

A Historical Multi-Case Study Of Five Women Who Experienced Pregnancy As Unmarried Teens, Marilyn Valerio

Journal of Women in Educational Leadership

Multi-case study methodology was used to explore the experiences of five women from five different decades who became pregnant as unmarried teens. This historical view was developed by interviewing paI1icipants about family. social. and cultural contexts in which the event occurred. A clearer understanding of teen pregnancy resulted when the participants' stories were triangulated with decade literature. Four themes emerged: How They Got There. What Followed. Lifelong Impact, and Literature Over Time. The study supported the need for families and communities to engage in meaningful dialogue with their youth and to implement strategies that foster primary prevention of teen pregnancy. …

Change As The Convergence Of Energies: Using The Lens Of Postmodern Thinking To Examine Change In Higher Education, Linda Hamption Weston, Jeanne Gray Carr

Journal of Women in Educational Leadership

Post modern thought, in particular dynamic systems theory, offers explanations for the profound era in which we live. Defining myself as an educational leader with a post modern visionary perspective, I have deconstructed a change effort in higher education to demonstrate the developmental process that took place within me when I acted as an educational change agent. As part of this story, I have added the voice of an executive coach, who volunteered her services to the university and worked with me during the second semester of this change effort. This effort is analogous to a river that is constantly …
