The PDW "Complicating Identity and Context: Global and Cross Cultural Perspectives on Women Leaders" aims to explore the current "state of the art" research on women leaders and women's leadership within a global and cross cultural context. Our intent is to establish a platform to share current knowledge on how we conduct research within and across cultural contexts. We will also examine how our assumptions and conceptual framing influences best practices in women's leadership education, with explicit emphasis on deconstructing cross cultural context and methods. Structured discussions will allow for in depth discussion using experienced academics and consultant colleagues in the field. Facilitators are listed below:
Susan Vinnicombe, Cranfield University
Hannah Bowles Riley, Harvard University
Ujvala Rajadhyasksha, St. Mary's College
Michal Frenkel, Hebrew University of Jerusalem
