Chapter: Difference and Leadership (2015, 2019)
Leadership often involves recognising differences, reducing discrimination and fostering inclusion in organisations and societies. In this chapter Amanda and Michelle call attention to the power dynamics behind the construction of difference. Who is designated ‘different’ and how can diverse communities and organisations be led in ways that do not reinforce power differentials? The chapter includes contemporary examples of leaders who celebrate difference and empower diverse communities.
