[more] This chapter addresses the issues of gender and its relationship to leadership for health professionals and how different generational groups may or may not influence leadership. It considers the potential causes of gender differences and the barriers women may face in reaching their leadership potential, offering recommendations to help women overcome the challenges. The chapter focuses on the issue of generational differences and considers whether such differences affect how health service leaders lead or manage. Gender inequality remains evident in leadership roles worldwide. There is considerable agreement that women face more barriers to becoming leaders and more pressure from their roles than men do, especially for leadership roles in male-dominated professions or industries. Women are becoming more prominent in senior leadership and middle management positions in a range of organisations. COVID-19 will also impact upon their formative years through home education and disruptions to face-to-face personal connections.

[more] As is the case with many western countries, the Australian population is becoming increasingly aged, with research indicating this situation as being more pronounced in rural areas. In rural communities, older people have been identified as being at a higher nutritional risk than their city counterparts. Nutrition is affected by physiological, psychological, socioeconomic and social factors. For older rural people, socioeconomic disadvantages are exacerbated not only due to factors associated with ageing, but also due to ¿determinants of health¿ such as disengagement from the workforce, reduced income, lack of transport, and more limited access to services such as health and aged care services. In addition, changes in family and community relationships (for example loss of a spouse, children leaving to work in cities and retirement) impact upon the ability of individuals to cope with day to day tasks. These issues contribute to the context for considering how socialisation around food consumption and preparation impact well-being for rural older adults. Whilst literature recognises the importance of social factors in the nutrition of older people, particularly in aged-care facilities, there has been little focus on the social context of food on the nutritional status and general wellbeing of older people in rural communities. This chapter will discuss preliminary findings from research that explores the food habits of older people living in rural and regional areas of Australia. Participants in the study reside in retirement villages in the regional township of Mount Gambier where residents make their own choices about food preparation and consumption.
