PRESENTERS: CHRISTINA BUCKLESS BECKY KENEMUTH JUNE 4, 2010 NATIONAL CONFERENCE FOR COLLEGE WOMEN STUDENT LEADERS “Uneasy Lies the Head that Wears the Crown” (King Henry IV, Part II, act 3, scene 1, line 31)

Session Overview As a result of today’s workshop, you will: Identify at least 3 personal/emotional challenges related to being a leader. Articulate WHY these challenges occur. Develop strategies for overcoming these challenges now and in the future.

Why is leadership so important to women, anyway? Enhances cognitive and psychological development. Strengthens practical and interpersonal competence. Impacts future career success and academic ability. Provides self-esteem and sense of competence.

It’s “Lonely at the Top”... says research based on professional and business women (research is limited related to student leadership) Sure, leadership is GREAT. But.....

Common Challenges for Women Leaders Hard to find a community of people. People don’t understand the challenges. Limited time for relationships. People assume you are “too busy.” You forget to take care of yourself. Involvement takes priority over academics. Liaison between administration AND students. You make tough and unpopular decisions. People don’t notice that you feel bad/sad/lonely.

Example: Dr. Ding-Jo Hsia Currie Dr. Ding-Jo Hsia Currie President: Coastline Community College Southern California “We are now being accepted much more than before” “The advice I always give other leaders is to know yourself” “But we are still not part of the ‘boys’ network” “A turning point in my career, in terms of coming to some understanding, appreciation and validation as a woman and woman leader.”

Despite our challenges, we do so much WELL! Getting people to transform their own self-interest to match the interest of the group using charisma, empowerment, hard work, personal connections. Involving others and fostering a sense of self-worth. Encouraging involvement and participation. Energizing and exciting people. Communicating and listening. Sharing power and information. Taking risks and trying new ideas.

Overcoming Challenges A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Lao-tzu, The Way of Lao-tzu Chinese philosopher (604 BC BC) So, let’s get started...
