“I am absolutely confident that for two years if every nation on earth was run by women, you would see a significant improvement across the board on just about everything...” (Barak Obama, 2019)

Over the last 100 years, the role and rights of women have been changing. The constant in these changes is the number of awe-inspiring women leaders that have improved the lives of the people around them. Over six classes we will explore how gender influences women leaders, and identify issues that women continue to confront in striving for equality for all. From the bold suffragettes to women making current headlines, explore what makes women leaders “tick” and the issues that have inspired them.
