This book examines the gendered politics in the context of a merger of the women’s and men’s athletic departments at the University of Minnesota over a ten year plus span. Examining the athletic department merger helps us understand women's continual under-representation in University athletics despite Title IX legislation passing 40 years ago. Using interview with organizational stakeholders and archival document data, the book explores how organizational change in the form of a merger is gendered with relation to the premerger, merged, post-merger stages.

Nursing Leadership focuses on principles of effective leadership and leadership development in nursing, and is equally applicable for other professional groups. The book explores the importance of balancing leadership theory and knowledge with the development of leadership skills based on action-learning, and using a framework of three integrated components: the person who is the leader, the setting of leadership, and the followers. Nursing Leadership highlights the importance of preparing nurses for leadership in a global context in light of the challenge of changing health services and nursing roles. Nursing Leadership is brought to life with examples from the International Council of Nurses’ experience with its ‘Leadership for Change™ programme (LFC™)’ implemented in over fifty countries and in a variety of socio-political and cultural contexts. The book addresses principles of effective leadership that promote successful and sustainable outcomes across many different settings, including within resource-limited health systems.
