Black Women’s Formal and Informal Ways of Leadership: Actualizing the Vision of a More Equitable Workplace

by Bowser, Audrey D., Davis, Kimberley M., Johnson-Leslie, Natalie A.

Social Science

Black women’s marginalized experience has often superseded their impact at their respective workplaces. Usually, Black women’s ways of knowing and leadership are composed of practices that do not fit perfectly in our heterogenous ideal of leadership. It is crucial to share Black women’s ways of knowing and understand how Black women navigate their roles. Black Women’s Formal and Informal Ways of Leadership discusses how Black women’s pedagogies shape their navigation through life through formal and informal leadership roles. It empowers the various voices of Black women and challenges the idea of who we look at as leaders. Covering topics such as perception bias, emotional intelligence, and Black women stereotypes, this premier reference source is a dynamic resource for business leaders and managers, entrepreneurs, human resource managers, librarians, faculty and administrators of education, students of higher education, government officials, researchers, and academicians.
