• Course description
  The purpose of this course is to analyse the roles, responsibilities, and expectations of women in leadership positions. Current issues and trends will be examined from historical, sociological, political, and ethical perspectives. Why does women’s leadership matter? Do women have an identifiably different way of leading? What structural/institutional/cultural obstacles do women face?  How have women confronted/challenged/altered these obstacles? How are issues relating to women and leadership similar and/or different across cultures? In this course we have the unique opportunity to intermix classroom learning with meetings with real world entrepreneurs and social entrepreneurs who are creating systemic change to business and society.
