Abstract

Perceptions of who makes an effective leader are altered in crises. One perspective from which leadership effectiveness can be evaluated is gender differences. In this panel symposium, we will discuss research on gender and leadership effectiveness and focus on why women might be more effective leaders than men in a crisis. Panelists will point to misalignments among mechanisms discussed in extant research and identify synergies to elucidate why women might be more effective leaders than men in a crisis. The session will include discussion of the gender and leadership literature, conversation about the need for intersectional research, such as examining joint identities of gender and race, and suggestions for future research.
