Gender and Leadership is an excellent book that will serve well anyone interested in exploring the factors that lead to gender inequalities, and embracing practical approaches to address these inequalitiesI especially value the books emphasis on redesigning systems rather than fixing individuals. The book stands out for its breadth and its practical relevance, combining systematic, quantitative research with powerful real-world examples. Prof. Marchiondo has done a phenomenal job of bringing together a relevant set of experts, and creating a cohesive volume in which every chapter is clearly contributing to a complete picture of the core issues. The five case studies in the closing chapter are especially powerful in helping the reader see the value of the books overall structure. A must-read for anyone who wants to understand how to reap the rewards of leveling the playing field in the workplace.
