“…Studying leadership, especially among women, from a cultural, feminist, and/or Indigenous viewpoint contributes to the dialogue of what a leader is (Gambrell & Fritz, 2012). Researching these fields from newer perspectives, communities, and voices ensures that due diligence is given to the conversation by challenging what is seen as the norm (Gambrell, 2017).…”

“…In Western culture, the theorists present it as flawed as it speaks to the individual perspective of authenticity with vague definitions and questions about if one can be authentic (Atwijuka & Caldwell, 2017;Einola & Alvesson, 2021;Ford & Harding, 2011;Ladkin, 2021). Within cultural, Indigenous, feminist, and other minority groups, authentic leadership is based on continuously learning from others, operating from a community aspect, and expanding one's values as one matures (Gambrell, 2017). There is an understanding that leadership is communal and dynamic, not static; therefore, one's values may change over the years, yet that person can still be an authentic leader if acting within their true self at a specific moment in time (Spiller, 2021).…”

Higher Education Leaders as Entre-Employees: A Narrative Study

<i>During 2020, the world experienced a pandemic that led to sickness, death, and a global shutdown. Businesses closed, governments worked to keep people paid during the shutdown, children learned from their homes, and adults worked from home (for those who could).  Other adults lost their jobs due to downsizing during the pandemic, while others quit their jobs, starting the great resignation (Cook 2021). Among those affected were African American women who launched their own companies, even those with leadership roles in higher education. Whether they did so as a side business or as a second full-time career, the pandemic provided them an opportunity to take a risk. While starting a business is a cause for a celebration, the reasons behind women leaders in higher education starting their own companies is more complex. The purpose of this study, using narrative inquiry and semi-structured questions was to understand why African American women leaders, working in higher education, chose to launch their businesses during the COVID pandemic. Analyzing the participants’ life stories, the researcher discovered that familial history of entrepreneurship, inequities in the workplace, and valuing authentic leadership led African American higher education leaders to create businesses for themselves while also remaining in their higher educational roles, which they enjoyed.</i>

“…On a societal level, the perception of respect varies, widely depending on the worldviews held in a society (e.g., Indigenous Collectivist Mindset) (Gambrell, 2017). Therefore, it is likely that respect for older adults is driven by cultural factors, as it varies from one culture to another (Bergeron & Lagacé, 2021).…”

“Old” Does Not Always Mean “Incompetent”: The Implication of Respect in the Perception of Older People Subtypes

et al. 2023

Building on the Stereotype Content Model, the present work examined the heterogeneity of the stereotypes about older people. We aimed to broaden the range of perceived predictors of competence in older people and included respect in addition to status. Seventeen subtypes were selected in a pilot study (n = 77). The main study was conducted on a French sample (n = 212) that took part in a self-reported survey. Cluster analysis showed that specific older people subtypes appear in three combinations of warmth and competence. Correlation and regression analyses showed that competition negatively predicts warmth, and that status positively predicts competence. In a substantial number of target groups, respect played a more important role than status in the perception of group competence. To sum up, this study suggests that the perceived competence of older people is not only related to perceived socio-economic status but also to the amount of respect they receive.

“…Although we may never know how pre-European contact traditional Indian leadership practices and styles actually played out, there is enough information available that enables us to list the essential and important elements (American Indian Research and Policy Institute 2005; Warner and Grint 2006). Additionally, I draw on Lakota leadership styles and prototypical elements as described extensively by Gambrell (2017) and Gambrell and Fritz (2011). The essential important point I wish to make here, through the following narrative description of one prototype for an Indigenous leadership style, is that there is in fact one model of leadership that is currently used by NIH for its grant awards, and this model is frequently in conflict or cultural incongruous with the many styles and variations of indigenous leadership models.…”

The themes and topics found in this Prevention Science supplemental issue on Promoting Health Equity through Rigorous, Culturally Informed Intervention Science: Innovations with Indigenous Populations in the United States represent a comprehensive array of essential considerations for the ethical and principled conduct of health-related research with indigenous communities. The topics are inclusive of what must be considered when researchers realize "culture matters" in the conduct of ethnocultural field-based research. The reader is introduced to profound insights, engaging observations, important research results, and cutting-edge commentary on the future of health-centered research and practice with indigenous populations. In reflecting on the general intent of the issue, two additional themes are considered. Attention is given to the research relationship and requirements for a significant degree and depth in the cultural competence and sensitivity of field-based research teams. Consideration also is given culture and leadership style at the local community level in research programs. These twin considerations have bearing on two important questions facing future research in Indigenous health. In effect, who will guide the community's policies, practices, and experiences of the research teams? Who will lead the funding and policy sources and the next generation of researchers? I wish to extend my deepest gratitude and admiration for the assistance provided me by my dear friend and colleague,
