The book investigates the persistent gender disparities in higher education, despite advancements in the women's movement and legal victories. It critiques professional development programs aimed at women, arguing they often overlook the deeper, institutionalized barriers to equality. By exploring the interplay between such programs and a supportive culture for women's leadership, it seeks to understand how these factors influence women's advancement in academia. The study is particularly relevant for higher education administrators, organizational theorists, and women in academia.
