St. Anselm lecture: women and leadership

“Women leaders in business, the military, and politics: A challenge to the belief in the natural order” is the title of a lecture to be delivered next week by Brandeis University professor and psychotherapist Dr. Rosalind Chait Barnett at the New Hampshire Institute of Politics at Saint Anselm College in Manchester.

Barnett, research director of the Community, Families and Work Program at the Women’s Studies Research Center at Brandeis University, will speak at 7 p.m. Among several books and publications, Barnett in 2004 co-authored “Same Difference: How gender myths are hurting our relationships, our children, and our jobs.” In the book, she challenges the myths of “Mars and Venus” and argues that it is power, not gender, that makes a difference.
