- Description
- 'Research focused on women in higher education is often conducted from a monolithic perspective of women. Few studies have investigated differences among and between women and the influences impacting such differences. Generational differences of individuals can influence values and preferences (Arsenault, 2004) as well as impact the organizational functioning of colleges and universities in the United States. Therefore, this mixed-method study explored these differences among female administrators in higher education. Quantitative analysis indicated generational differences in managerial practices among female leaders. However, more similarities than differences among the generational cohorts were discovered in the qualitative analysis. Implications for practice midlevel women administrators in student affairs are discussed.'
