- Description
- This article attempts to show how similar female leadership principles are employed in the Educational Leadership and Change (ELC) at Fielding Graduate University in Santa Barbara, United States of America. It is important to note that ELC has not attained all of its goals, but is a work in progress. Nonetheless, both its successes and its goals are operational models for what can be and for how institutions can return to the wisdom embedded in the indigenous worldview.

- Description
- In an attempt to solicit career advice for young women by interviewing experienced career women, this study discovered the location of the proverbial glass ceiling and revealed distinct types of power operating in organizations. The careers of the women participating in this study were circumscribed by conflicts. If they developed technical expertise as a mode of insulation, they escaped high conflict but remained on a technical career path without access to higher executive opportunities. If they pursued executive opportunities through general management positions, they were surrounded by high conflict and became career casualties in powerful threat systems.
