Asian American Women Leading Transformatively
Leung, Amy; Turner, Caroline S.
New Directions for Community Colleges, n202 p63-75 Sum 2023
This chapter provides critical insights into transformative leadership, a leadership approach guided by equity, social justice, and emancipatory education, based on the practices of eight Asian American women in community college administration. The authors engaged in critical narrative inquiry and conducted semi-structured interviews with each leader. The study findings revealed leadership practices that center the democratic mission of the community college, social justice, community, and activism. Themes of the Asian American woman identity, intersectionality, and multiplicity also emerged from the narrative data. The chapter serves to underscore the assets these leaders bring to their educational institutions and debunk negative stereotypes of Asian American leadership.
