When Qualified Women Resist the Leader Label
Sree VijaykumarSarah, a manager in a bustling tech company, consistently delivers top results. Her team outperforms others, her strategic insights drive innovation, and her emotional intelligence allows her to easily navigate complex stakeholder relationships. By all measures, Sarah is an exemplary leader. Yet, when asked if she sees herself as a leader, Sarah hesitates. "I'm just doing my job," she says with a shrug.

Sarah is not alone. Indeed, research reveals a startling disconnect: Although women often outperform men in leadership effectiveness, they are less likely to identify as leaders. This isn't just about modesty or impostor syndrome; it's an invisible misalignment between competence and identity that powerfully skews the leadership landscape. Seeing oneself as a leader is often a preliminary step to being seen as a leader by others, yet this identification process is more fraught for women than for men, particularly in the workplace.

Russia-Ukraine War Latest: Ukraine fires UK Storm Shadow missiles at Russia
Ukraine's armed forces fired British cruise missiles against military targets inside Russia for the first time, Bloomberg reported, citing Western sources familiar with the situation. The Storm Shadow missile strikes were approved in response to Russia's deployment of North Korean troops in its war against Ukraine. The U.K. government saw it as an escalation of the conflict, according to the source who spoke on the condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the situation. Ukraine has used Storm Shadow missiles on its own territory, but it now appears that Kyiv has been given authority to hit targets within Russia. The deployment of Storm Shadow missiles follows Russia's counteroffensive in Kursk, which was invaded by Ukrainian soldiers in August. It also comes after President Joe Biden decided to allow Ukraine to employ U.S.-made long-range missiles within Russia earlier this week.
