Our Goal

The goal of the academy is for members and fellows to establish a network of feminist leaders and acquire and strengthen their skills and knowledge to advance in their leadership careers.
A dedicated context to have authentic and practical discussions about being a feminist senior/executive leader in academic settings utilizing a critical race theoretical framework.

Our Focus

The focus of Academic Feminist Leadership Academy will facilitate fellows and members' considerations of a number of questions:
  • How we do identify, recruit, and manage reliable and trustworthy allies?
  • How do we name the oppressions and manage the stresses that come with being a feminist senior/executive leader, while finding the joy and excitement in building teams and organizations with the potential to meet strategic goals and commitments of our organizations?
  • How do we as feminist senior/executive leaders acknowledge our power and privileges while maintaining our feminist values?​
  • How do we execute feminist leadership consistent with our values and not replicate the traditional patriarchal and oppressive forms of leadership behaviors?
