DESCRIPTION:Research into the glass cliff examines what happen
 s when women begin to take on leadership roles in 
 increasing numbers. Extending the metaphor of the 
 glass ceiling\, 'the glass cliff' describes an lea
 dership phenomenon whereby women are more likely t
 o be found in leadership positions that are associ
 ated with a greater risk of failure and criticism.
  This talk will describe a decades worth of resear
 ch which has uncovered the phenomenon of the glass
  cliff looking at archival research into company p
 erformance\, experimental laboratory studies\, and
  interviews with female leaders. We will also exam
 ine some of the underlying psychological processes
 : stereotypes\, support networks\, and organisatio
 nal strategy. Implications for gender equality ini
 tiatives and for women who are aiming for leadersh
 ip roles will be discussed.
