Abstract
Description
Texas has the second largest number of chamber of commerce entities in the country with over 600 throughout the state. Yet little to no research has been done on women’s leadership within these local economic engines. The author created an original data set to examine the gender composition of Texas chambers’ boards of directors and leadership to identify systematic patterns of inclusion or exclusion within these entities.
