Isi artikel

Two culturally distinct models of leadership discussed in the current literature are the Anglo - American male hierarchical model and, to a lesser extent, the "distinctly female” approach to leadership (Grossman & Chester, 1990 ; Helgesen, 1990 ; Loden, 1985). This paper challenges the practice of applying these culturally distinct models to all populations, particularly African - American women executives. We discuss two problematic assumptions that underlie the Anglo - dominated gender and leadership research : (a) racism and sexism are parallel processes with common effects on racial and gender groups (Smith & Stewart, 1983) ; and (b) women are sufficiently homogeneous so that generalizations based on one group (Anglo - American, middle - class women) can explain the leadership styles of all women. We propose that African - American women executives' leadership styles and behaviours may reflect attributes of both the Anglo - male and female leadership models, as well as a distinctly African - American female approach to leadership.
