Gender-aware leadership and work for change

Prof. Anna Wahl, Professor (Chair) Gender, Organization and Management and Vice president for Gender Equality and Values at the Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden

She will present her field of research, gender and organization, and moving from theory to practice, she will share some examples of work for gender equality, diversity and inclusion in different contexts. Focus is on the importance of raising awareness and knowledge on gender and diversity among managers and leaders to have an impact on organizational work for change.

Prof. Clara Kulich, Associate Professor, Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences, University of Geneva, Switzerland

What do different groups of people associate with minority leadership and why do we observe these glass-cliff tendencies? Do women and ethnic, racial and immigration minorities self-select into precarious career trajectories? What are the boundary conditions of this minority-crisis cocktail when considering the promotion and retention of women and other minorities, and organizational climate?
