This volume challenges and reshapes the boundaries and relationships of power that animate traditional attitudes to leadership by exploring the often-overlooked role of women as leaders and drivers of social change. The text draws on a number of complex case studies in Asia and the Pacific in order to demonstrate how young women around the world have developed organised approaches to leadership that are often collective, collaborative, and transformative. However, as the authors reveal, they also deviate from traditional forms of leadership that have dominated the literature and public understanding. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of the theory and/or practice of leadership. More broadly, it will also be useful for students and scholars of political science, international studies, peace and conflict studies, international and community development, leadership studies, cultural studies, youth studies, and gender studies"-- aEnglish. 0aLeadership in womenzAsia. 0aLeadership in womenzPacific Area. 0aYoung womenzAsiaxSocial conditions. 0aYoung womenzPacific AreaxSocial conditions.1 aLee-Koo, Katrinaeeditor.1 aPruitt, Lesley J.eeditor.
