Women in K–12 education face multiple barriers to rising into top leadership roles, including a lack of mentors, work/life balance, and the skepticism of school boards about women as strong managers. In this talk, Sara Laschever will describe ways for women to successfully advocate for the opportunities, resources, accommodations, and other forms of support they need to climb into leadership roles traditionally occupied by far more men than women. She will show women how to recognize more opportunities to negotiate, maximize their bargaining power, rehearse their negotiations beforehand, and employ negotiating strategies that have been shown to work especially well for women.
