Barbara Kellerman, research director for the Center for Public Leadership at the Kennedy School of Government: 'Be emboldened to act.
Kellerman takes care to separate the leadership from the leader, saying that leadership is best understood by focusing on three variables: the leader, the followers, and the context of the times.

Harvard Gazette: Women's movement, or lack of it (964 words)
Kellerman acknowledged at the start of her talk that the subject is extraordinarily touchy, and smacks of "blaming the victim." But the evidence, she said, shows that something is at work beyond women being held back by prejudice, stereotype, and sexism.
Kellerman's talk was sponsored by the Committee on the Concerns of Women at Harvard (CCW), a University-wide organization founded in 1977 that serves as a forum for women's issues and concerns.
Kellerman said that "appalling gaps" in the levels of pay, power, and status still exist between men and women, but she also said the hurdles that kept women from advancing in business and in government 40 years ago are largely gone.
