DELGADO, Manuel Lorenzo; SOLA MARTINEZ, Tomás  and  CACERES RECHE, Mª Pilar. Women leading managerial positions: a longitudinal study at Universidad de Granada (1990-2005) . educ.educ. [online]. 2007, vol.10, n.2, pp.177-194. ISSN 0123-1294.

The presence of women at managerial positions continues being one of the biggest challenges for this group. In this article we intend to show that situation, through a descriptive research made at Universidad de Granada , Spain , with a group of men and women who have high institutional positions as Deans, First Secretaries, or Directors. We did this work by reviewing each students group's memories at the University, from 1990 until 2005. This study includes, on one hand, a diachronical perspective, understood as the evolution of all departments and faculties at Universidad de Granada with female presence in managerial positions during the last fifteen years. On the other hand, from a synchronic perspective, this research intends to focus specifically on women's situation in managerial positions at the various Departments that compose the Faculty of Educational Science.

Keywords : Superior Education; Educational Management; leadership; gender studies; Universidad de Granada.
