Analyze her leadership characteristics presented by Chin. Reflect on feminist leadership. What if any components of liberal feminist leadership does she utilize? Is the historical leader a feminist? Explain. Think about communication style, family background, etc. What are the central historical dynamics that shape this womens leadership approach and what if any multicultural principles does she utilize?
