They now hold nearly one-third of chief executive positions and represent 48 percent of chief academic officers, according to CUPA-HR’s latest data.

This Chronicle collection includes must-read articles on the obstacles these women face and the strategies they rely on to advance. Among their essential skills: developing a supportive network, clearly communicating their values, managing conflict, and, as one leader put it, knowing when to focus and when to rely on peripheral vision.
