Today's guest blog is written by Susan R. Madsen. She is Professor of Management in the Woodbury School of Business at Utah Valley University and the Orin R. Woodbury Professor of Leadership and Ethics. Recently she completed directing the two-year Utah Women and Education Project for the state of Utah and continues to work with key Utah stakeholders on related efforts.
For the past decade I have been on a quest to explore the lifetime development of leadership in high profile women leaders. I have spent years interviewing top women leaders in a variety of sectors (e.g., government, higher education, and industry) and countries. In all cases, these leaders talked about the foundational leadership development influences during their elementary and secondary years. A host of themes emerged from the data that I believe provide valuable insights for K-12 educators; I will highlight three of them in this blog.
