Women, leadership, spiritualty, and religion have been complexly interwoven throughout history and cultures. The Inspirational Women Leaders: The Challenges and Rewards of Religion, Spirituality, Purpose, and Calling in Leadership books explore support and obstacles that women leaders face as shaped by religion and spirituality, the impact of historical and contemporary women leaders influenced by their beliefs, and how women leaders practice spiritual leadership in a variety of contexts. For some women, their leadership connects with finding and exploring a sense of purpose, recognizing and following a calling or vocation, and exploring the impacts of religion and spirituality on leadership and society.By celebrating women leaders and their leadership styles, these books highlight impactful leadership approaches and heartening stories of endurance. Serving as a model and motivation for women leaders, these books also create a community for women leaders around the world.Part One, focusing on Contemporary Research and Reflections, delves into the profound and often underexplored connection between a woman's leadership in her life and work with her diverse spiritual, religious, or philosophical foundations.

Both books illuminate how personal beliefs and a sense of greater meaning can be a source of immense strength and a catalyst for unique challenges in a leader's professional and personal life.The Transformative Women Leaders Series is published in collaboration between the International Leadership Association (ILA) and Emerald Publishing. Celebrating women leaders and the leadership styles they employ to achieve success, the books in this series highlight successful leadership approaches across contexts, time, and cultures.
