Abstract

Problem: The challenges faced by women in leadership, to some extent, appear throughout the word, across country-based cultures and religious traditions, even where there has been progress. The eight articles that comprise this issue raise questions related to women in leadership, providing a cross-case opportunity to explore what might yet be needed to empower women in leadership roles in business, politics, non-government organizations, academia, and the family. The Solution: There are no easy solutions that emerge from our analysis across these eight articles. Worldviews influence women in leadership; from these articles, we understand the influences better and glimpse opportunities for improving the status of women leaders, globally, as well as within specific countries and religious traditions. We also suggest perspectives that might lead to valuable studies that will help/pave the way for developing future women leaders. Stakeholders: HR scholars and practitioners, potential and current women leaders, and those working with or accommodating women leaders in multiple contexts are the main stakeholders of this issue. Furthermore, because this is the concluding article to this issue, all of the stakeholders listed with each article will be interested in our overall conclusions to this issue.
