Join Community, Equity and Diversity for the DE&I 365 Symposium (CANCELLED)

Session Description: This session shares findings from a study that addressed the ways intersectionality, particularly race and gender, affects the work performance of Black women administrators at PWIs. Employing critical Black feminist research methodology, the purpose of the study was to explore (a) Black women administrators’ perceptions of their intersectionality in the workplace, and (b) Black women administrators’ perceptions of whether and how their intersectionality affected four dimensions of their work performance at PWIs. One of the discoveries of this research was that Black women administrators reported six interrelated experiences that shaped perceptions of their work performance.
