Abstract
This chapter identifies gender-based leadership barriers according to socio-historical, institutional, and interactional factors that may be external and internal to universities, yet influence women's advancement in the context of higher education. The review suggests problems of under-representation of female faculty leaders in higher education derives from stereotypes attached to women regarding their lack of capacity to hold leadership positions and, consequentially, barriers to navigate the perceived masculine world of leadership. We conclude with contemporary evidence-practices scholars have put forth for addressing gender-based leadership barriers.
