Abstract

The concept of “leadership” has been highlighted. The different styles of leadership like Likert’s Systems of Management, Leadership Grid developed by Robert Blake and Jane Mouton and the Transactional/Transformational model of leadership have been discussed. The influence of gender on leadership has been taken into consideration. The reviews of literature on “Gender and Leadership” in Academic Libraries from 1974–2018 have been studied. The status of woman in Library profession and the challenges faced by the female library professionals have also been depicted. It is concluded that the women are proving themselves in the Library profession despite the various challenges faced by them regarding their professional developments.
