Book synopsis

This work explores the values of male and female principals in Icelandic urban schools in an era of educational change. Principals and assistant principals were asked about the impact of values and gender on their actions. The purpose was to shed light on the interplay between values, gender, and leadership behaviour. The book highlights the gendered nature of the changes and how they may impact differently upon men and women leaders. It shows that despite similar values, the position of men and women leaders is unequal. Several influencing factors were found to contribute to this unequal positioning of men and women, including different careers, discriminatory behaviour towards women, and new competencies, such as computer literacy where more men than women were proficient.
