Quade, Kristine; Beaver, Amanda K.; Fry, Laura; Bulmini, Daniela; Miller, Elvia
Journal of Instructional Research, v8 n1 p92-98 2019
This qualitative descriptive study was conducted to explore how female leaders describe remaining authentic when being scapegoated. The participants were 12 senior female leaders in either for-profit or nonprofit roles in Arizona. While not all women were able to maintain their authenticity during the scapegoating experience, the experience was transformational for all of them.
