title = "The effect of media on women and leadership",
abstract = "This chapter examines the effect of media on women and leadership by exploring the representation of women{\textquoteright}s leadership through stereotypes and metaphors. It explains the centrality of the media{\textquoteright}s relationship with women and leadership, drawing attention to its importance as a site for scholarly research in order to understand the persistent negative evaluation of women as leaders. To explore the media representation of women leaders, the chapter investigates stereotypes and metaphors that are prevalent in relation to women, gender, and the workplace. The examination provides a means to identify their effects on how the authors view and understand women and leadership. It concludes by identifying gaps and challenges for future research and proposes a research agenda to extend understandings about the effect of media on women and leadership.",
