Curiosity and Leadership: The Challenges Women Face in Ambiguous Roles
Picture a parent observing their child energetically digging a hole in the backyard, dirt scattering in all directions without a discernible goal. When questioned, the child joyfully shrugs, “Just exploring.” This scene mirrors the challenges many women encounter in ambiguous or unstructured leadership roles.
