This important book in the EFMD series shines a light on women (and sometimes the absence of them) within business schools, as well as their contributions and impact across multiple spheres within and beyond their schools.

Despite the clear rationale for promoting sustainable gender equity, the experiences of women in business schools differs relative to male counterparts across geographies, student populations, faculty, professional staff and leaders in business schools. In this book, contributions from leading business school thinkers provide deep insight on gender equity to determine what hinders and accelerates progress in creating gender diverse and inclusive schools. Chapters both celebrate the progress of women in business schools and provide rich narratives that deepen insights into the lived experiences of women contributing both to, and beyond, business schools. At the same time, the volume serves as a sobering reminder business schools still have a long way to go before they can be used as exemplars in attracting diverse talents in all their forms and creating inclusive, equitable environments that role model the ideals that we advocate for business and society.

The breadth and depth of contributions made by women as leaders, scholars and practitioners serve as an inspiration and guide as to how business schools can become more gender equitable for business school deans and professors.
