The Difference "Difference" Makes : Women and Leadership

Why are women so dramatically underrepresented in formal leadership positions - and what can be done about it?

This work takes up these questions in the practical concepts of law, politics, and business - the arenas in which women's leadership has the most public influence.

It covers the questions about the difference gender difference makes, both in access to leadership and in its exercise.
