Additional materials include: a summary of questionnaire results concerning problems of Kentucky women administrators, a summary of a personal career path conference session, sample critical incidents involving women administrators, conference evaluation forms, sample materials for role players, sample vita, invitational letters, guidelines for small-group facilitators, conference programs, a guide for secretarial staff making conference arrangements, and a press release.
