MGT-5552: Women’s Studies: a Tool for Understanding Women’s Unique Challenges in Leadership

This course invites students to critically examine the social understandings of gender and the powerful role that gender plays in both our work and personal lives. An emphasis will be place on how gender interacts with women’s experiences in and of leadership. We will analyze the history of systemic gender prejudice and gender discrimination and its consequences for women (and men). Moreover, we will discuss both individual and collective strategies for social equality and social change. With the focus on the U.S., this course strongly emphasizes the diversity of gendered experiences due to differences in race and ethnicity, sexuality, age, and physical abilities, etc.
