Abstract

The paper describes an innovative graduate seminar on Women and Leadership. The course was designed primarily to encourage the development of voice. The paper presents the theoretical assumptions on which the course was based, includes an overview of seminar activities and illustrates four meanings of developing voice: understanding voice as a leadership concept, becoming more assertively articulate, valuing personal knowledge and expressing personal truth in speech and actions. The paper incorporates the voices of the seminar students through the use of quotations from their writings. Students reported that the development of voice enhanced their leadership effectiveness and raised their educational and professional aspirations.
