- Summary
- Studies on both emotional intelligence and transformational leadership suggest that women are more transformational and emotionally intelligent in their leadership styles. In this book, several variables that may influence the relationship between emotional intelligence and transformational leadership are analysed. A series of studies that examined gender-congenial variables and group variables and their impact on leadership emergence of women and men are summarised as well. In addition, the authors seek to understand the role of gender relations and gender identities in the context of doing qualitative research and their impacts in the ethics of conducting qualitative interviewing. Some of the problematic aspects to feminist engagement with adult male sexual victimisation is highlighted. In addition, the empirical research on the relationship of feminist attitudes and feminist identity to self-esteem and self-efficacy, weight concern, psychological well-being, relationship and sexuality, sexism and psychological distress, personality, and cognitions are reviewed. -- Book Description.
