Abstract: 

Women in educational administration and other professional leadership roles are noticeable by their scarcity both in the third world and in the industrialized countries. In the former, their low participation often results from the underdevelopment of women's education and hence low availability. In the latter, despite full education and high availability, very few women are to be found in educational and other leadership positions. In fact, in many third world societies the incidence of female "seclusion" has thrown up more women educational administrators, considering the low proportion of women who receive higher education in these societies.
