There are few campus presidents or chancellors who are women in higher education. The lack of diversity, equity, and inclusion in the hiring practices of women of color for the top spot is less than 6%. Institutions have not fully integrated cultural humility into their policies, procedures, and service delivery. Additionally, these institutions have embraced cultural competence with their trainings, which has many limitations that impede the enforcement of cultural safety, while maintaining systemic racism and discriminatory practices.
The following directives will be included in your paper:
· Describe the backlash that women face with the glass cliff and glass ceiling.
· Discuss the differences between public and private universities and their promotions of women and women of color.
· Identify the reasons why training programs that prepare underrepresented groups for top positions fail.
· Explain the inclusion of cultural humility as an addition to cultural competency training programs and the factors that encourage cultural sensitivity of higher education administrators and governing boards.
· Analyze the factors associated with the recruitment and hiring of women of color as campus presidents.
· Define the governing boards’ role with gender parity and hiring of women to hold the top positions in higher education.
· Discuss three solutions that may combat the systemic issues against diversity, equity, and inclusion in the hiring of women for campus president positions.
· Identify strategies to develop and foster cultural humility.
