Description
This study explored media framing of leadership and gender in an Australian business context. The findings indicated complex differential framings, with a dominance towards traditional and heroic leadership whilst simultaneously emphasising post-heroic perspectives. Media framing of individual leaders highlighted tensions between expectations to perform leadership and conforming to gendered cultural norms. This research contributes to critical leadership studies by providing insight into the multidimensionality of heroic and post-heroic forms of leadership. There are also practical implications for how organisations and individuals perceive and enact leadership in work contexts.
