awl: A Pathfinder

This is a computer-generated pathfinder created against the Distant Reader study called awl.

Each Distant Reader study carrel is composed of many individual items. Each item is bibliographically described with author, title, date, summary, and keyword values. Below is a list of the items' most signficant keywords as well as lists of the items themselves. Purpusing the content of this pathfinder provides the student, researcher, or scholar with one way to get their heads around the scope of the carrel. The keywords include:

Leadership; Education; Gender; School; Participants; Work; Students; Female; Career; Faculty; Positions; Experiences; Self; Community; Mentoring; Management; People; Life; Teachers; Role; Awl; Feminist; Nrahman; Culture; Justice; Discrimination; Status; Flash2; Experience; Programs; Http://careers.advancingwomen.com/; Http://www.advancingwomen.com/index.html; Https://www.advancingwomen.com/awl/awl.html

Depending on how this pathfinder was created, many of the bibliographic sections will include elaborations on the meaning(s) of the given keywords. These elaborations were generated by feeding the items' summaries to a large langauge model and asking the model to address the question, "What is X?", where "X" is the keyword. The result will be a few sentences of elaboration. Be forewarned. The elaborations are often plausible, but they should not be take as truth. Instead, they should be taken as points for consideration.

• Women Leaders and Narratives: The Power of Reflecting on Purpose and Career by Smith, Deborah Nelson; Suby-Long, Sallie (2019) - For women in particular, Ibarra, Ely, and Kolb (2013) noted that one effective way to support women as they moved into leadership positions was to “anchor women’s development efforts in a sense of leadership purpose rather than in how women are perceived” (p. 63). Finally, faith/spirituality was noted as an important factor in participants’ awareness of leadership purpose and decision- making.

• Integrating Care and Critical Reflection in Women's Leadership Development Programs by Frkal, Robin (2018) - The incidents of dialogue examined in this study involved engagement between women participants within a large age range and fairly mixed backgrounds. To succeed in leadership, these women must find ways to navigate a landscape that holds women leaders to outdated expectations and personal perceptions, and this requires profound reflection, not just development of skills and techniques (Debebe, 2011; Vinnicombe & Singh, 2002).

As the United States embarked on the 20th century, Cooper’s vision included new opportunities for women, especially Black women and was an accurate prediction of how Black women have come to be seen as central to the survival of Black American community (Cooper, 2000; Hill Collins, 2000; May & Guy-Sheftall, 2007).

• Beyond Colleagues: Women Leaders and Work Relationships by Davidson, Sherwin (2018) - Therefore, this study investigates what women leaders identify as factors that contribute to the quality of their leadership experiences, and in particular, it probes the nature of their work relationships with other women. Given that women leaders may be somewhat outside both formal organizational structures and informal power structures, such as the old boys’ network (Gamba & Kleiner, 2001; McDonald, 2011; Searby & Tripses, 2006), they “pave alternative routes,” (Ibarra, 1997, p. 91) turning to strong close ties with other women (Fritz, 1997; Wood, 2000; Wright & Scanlon, 1991).

(2021) - Systemic Barriers to Women in CS&E Given even this relatively brief review of the research literature, it should be clear that there are many obstacles to women in CS&E, and that raising this issue in the scholarly record is not a new attempt. Advancing Women in Leadership Journal-Volume 40 42 The Continuity Problem The second set of systemic barriers to women’s underrepresentation in CS&E are those we classify as continuity problems: situations wherein women enter CS&E academic programs or professional careers, but either leave or are marginalized to the point of essential exclusion and thus do not achieve a significant share of leadership positions.

• Would You Send Your Daughter to Howard? Historically Black Colleges and Universities Advancing Black Women in Leadership by Yeboah, Amy (2021) - Black Women and American Politics Political Participation For centuries Black women have been politically involved in staging demonstrations and protests, signing petitions, boycotting, volunteering for political campaigns, contributing campaign funds, organizing and boldly speaking out, before having the right to vote. While Black women make up 7.3 % of the U.S. population and represent 30% of the elected officials in the 115th Congress, the visibility of representation in one area becomes a deceptive gain, for they do not represent all Black Women.

• Where the Glass Ceiling Cracks: Features of Organizations Where Women Rise to the Top by Harris, Dawn; Norlander, Peter (2023) - We find that men and women in best practice firms have generally similar age and tenure profiles, which is not the case at comparison firms.

• Men’s Perceptions of the Value of Women Leaders in Higher Education by Jones, Stephanie J.; Ryan Pal, Patricia (2021) - The focus of the study was their perceptions of the value of women leaders, the differences between how men and women are valued in higher education, and the stereotypes and challenges that contribute to how women are valued as leaders. Themes that emerged to answer this research question included: (a) male faculty and administrators do not always value women as leaders; (b) industry values female leaders more than academia; (c) institutional leadership may perpetuate the devaluation of women leaders; and (d) the value of women in higher education leadership remains a reflection of how women are valued in society.

• Occupational and Mental Health Consequences of Women's Experiences of Gender Discrimination and Negative Workplace Acts in the Legal Profession by Eansora, Donna M.; Lafreniereb, Kathryn D. (2017) - Questionnaires containing measures of negative acts in the workplace, gendered elements of the work environment, work-family conflict, job satisfaction, burnout, and mental health symptoms were mailed to a stratified random sample of Canadian women lawyers, resulting in a sample of 277 women lawyers from Alberta, Ontario, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia. Findings supported our hypothesis that negative workplace experiences, including gender discrimination, would predict lower levels of job satisfaction and greater levels of burnout in women lawyers. In contrast, women lawyers are not presumed to be competent and are often held to higher standards, are subject to greater scrutiny, and must often prove their competency through their achievements (Rhode, 2001).

• Where's the Joke? The Meaning Behind Sexual Humor by Brunner, Penelope W.; Costello, Melinda L. (2017) - Research that defines the boundary of acceptable sexual humor probably helps some organizations avoid legal action but does not address the possibility that sexual humor supports an existing organizational framework that is harmful to the advancement of women. Vinton (1989) categorizes humorous interactions observed at a small family-owned corporation in the Midwest, but labels obviously sexual jokes as mere “bantering” ( p. 161); a recategorization of Vinton’s data indicates that sexual humor is more pervasive in her setting than she reports.

• Prime Minister Mrs. Margaret Thatcher Advancing Gender Equality: Recruitment, Roles, Pay, and Pensions in the Armed Forces by Segell, Dr. Glen M. (2007) - In hindsight, Thatcher's political opponents, such as Baroness Dean of Thornton-le-Fylde in December 2001, would never forgive her for this ambiguity and dithering: I am not making a political point, but when Mrs. Thatcher was elected Prime Minister - much as I did not agree for political reasons - I felt that we might see more women in the Cabinet and that they would drive forward policies for women. In a review of the events and Thatcher's formulation of policy toward women in the armed forces, as a debate on gender equality and social justice, the salient variables and issues taken into consideration include: Thatcher's personal agenda; her ideological position; her policy priorities; her relations with women organizations; the domestic and international political situation in which she lived; and such concerns that she might have entertained, such as appearing to show favoritism toward other women or indeed appearing to be weak.
