Although women have made many strides in the area of leadership, stereotypes still exist that limit their power. Traditional concepts of femininity have not typically been associated with strength and competence. This article describes an inpatient unit at San Francisco General Hospital, University of California, San Francisco, which is led by a group of women. The unit houses a women-focused treatment team specializing in treating women who have serious mental illness with histories of severe trauma, including poverty and violence. The article describes the challenges and rewards available to women leaders in this type of setting. Four areas of women's leadership are explored: the stereotypes women have about each other as leaders, the expectations and biases of staff and trainees, the projections of patients onto women leaders, and women's leadership in relation to department administration. Strategies for addressing biases in these areas and developing women's leadership conclude the article.
尽管女性在领导力领域已经取得了很大进展，但限制她们权力的刻板印象仍然存在。传统的女性气质观念通常与力量和能力无关。本文介绍了加利福尼亚大学旧金山分校旧金山总医院的一个住院部，该部门由一群女性领导。该部门设有一个以女性为中心的治疗团队，专门治疗有严重精神疾病且有包括贫困和暴力在内的严重创伤史的女性。本文描述了在这种环境下女性领导者面临的挑战和收获。探讨了女性领导力的四个方面：女性对彼此作为领导者的刻板印象、工作人员和实习生的期望与偏见、患者对女性领导者的投射，以及女性在部门管理方面的领导力。文章最后总结了应对这些领域偏见和发展女性领导力的策略。
