Work-Life Balance of Women Leaders in the Association of Theological Schools

Work-Life Balance of Women Leaders book cover

“Although women often make up more than 50 percent of the student population at a theological institution, they are significantly underrepresented in leadership … accounting for fewer than 10 percent of the CEO’s in theological education.” Starting from this trenchant observation, Dr. Kelly Campbell’s ground-breaking research reporting on the work-life balance among successful women leaders in ATS-accredited schools provides an important first step in balancing, and indeed enriching, the leadership in theological education. This research is not only appropriate given the substantial increase in women studying in theological institutions but is particularly timely as well given the present generational retirement of the older and more traditional male leadership. Through analyzing and reporting the experience of the early vanguard of women leaders in theological education, Dr. Campbell hopes to encourage and guide a new generation of women leaders.
