Читать книгу Step In, Step Up - Jane A G. Kise - Страница 4

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

For two very special younger women leaders in Jane’s life, Mari and Lynn.

And for two significant women in Barbara’s life, her mother Grace and her daughter Emma.

Working together on this project while based in two far-flung countries means that our understanding of women in leadership benefitted from a wide network of voices from around the world.

First and foremost, we thank all the women who have attended conference sessions and programs on women in school leadership for sharing their thoughts, experiences, concerns, and suggestions for these pages. The other faculty members at the first Australian conference on this topic deserve special acknowledgment for helping to shape our thinking: Tonia Flanagan, Janelle Wills, and Lyn Sharratt.

We also want to thank the women who shared their stories of leadership with us for this book: Jennifer Abrams, Linda Douglas, Cassandra Erkens, Karen Gayle, Stacie Hansel, Joellen Killion, Annette Rome, Beth Russell, Dr. Lyn Sharratt, Lucy West, and Josephine Wise. Special thanks to our Hawaiian aunties, Trinidad Hunt and Lynne Truair, for their guidance on developing a leadership philosophy.

Gavin Grift of Solution Tree Australia originally introduced us to each other and encouraged this writing project, a clear example of how men and women can work together to encourage more women to step in and step up.
