Leadership through the gender lens: women and men in organisations

27.08.2009 13:36

International conference at Hanken School of Economics, Helsinki 22 - 23.10.2009

.

Leadership and management remain highly gendered. The differential relations of women and men to leadership and management are a key question for both theory and practice. This international conference brings together critical analyses and debates on gender, leadership and management. How leadership and management are gendered can mean more gender equal or more gender unequal conditions for women and men. It can also enhance the quality and value of leadership.

The overall aim of the conference is to generate new thinking, policy and action about women, men, gender and leadership.

Keynote speakers: Professors Albert J. Mills (Canada), Susan Vinnicombe (UK)
and Anna Wahl(Sweden). Over 50 papers from 18 countries will be
presented in parallel sessions.
