| hatshepsut leadership style: Biography of Hatshepsut Alex Foster, 2024-12-16 Hatshepsut, ancient Egypt’s most successful female pharaoh, defied tradition to rule with wisdom, strength, and vision. Born around 1507 BCE, Hatshepsut rose to power as a regent before declaring herself pharaoh, becoming one of the few women to rule Egypt. This biography explores her accomplishments, including ambitious building projects like her temple at Deir el-Bahri, her extensive trade expeditions to the Land of Punt, and her focus on stability and prosperity. Hatshepsut’s reign was marked by peace and economic growth, but her legacy was later obscured by successors who attempted to erase her achievements. This book celebrates her trailblazing leadership and lasting impact on ancient Egyptian history. |
| hatshepsut leadership style: Leveraging Your Leadership Style Liedeke Bosma, 2023-03-13 This is the second of a 2 book release around ‘Leveraging Your Leadership Style’. If we believe that FIRSTS pave the way for others, then studying women through the ages who were significant FIRSTS should help enlighten us with hope and inspiration that women can achieve great things given time, patience and above all, determination. In this small but targeted study, two hundred and two (202) women have been identified for their amazing achievements across the centuries. Through this study, there is no doubt that, as far back as 1500 BC, women have proven themselves to be great and capable leaders. As with many famous and accomplished men, some have led wars while others have promoted peace. Some are brilliant and vivacious, while others are shy and humble. They are all unique and unconstrained by the boundaries of sex, culture, politics, or religion. Although the study is not exhaustive, it attempts to identify and analyse many significant FIRSTS, through a series of structured activities, to achieve the following: 1. To understand what it takes to be the FIRST. 2. Identify key attributes, motivation, and commitment required. 3. Ability to discover and channel your passion, leadership goals and milestones and incorporate them into an effective, sustainable, and evolving Development Plan (considering future trends towards 2050). |
| hatshepsut leadership style: The Woman Who Would Be King Kara Cooney, 2014-10-14 An engrossing biography of the longest-reigning female pharaoh in Ancient Egypt and the story of her audacious rise to power. Hatshepsut—the daughter of a general who usurped Egypt's throne—was expected to bear the sons who would legitimize the reign of her father’s family. Her failure to produce a male heir, however, paved the way for her improbable rule as a cross-dressing king. At just over twenty, Hatshepsut out-maneuvered the mother of Thutmose III, the infant king, for a seat on the throne, and ascended to the rank of pharaoh. Shrewdly operating the levers of power to emerge as Egypt's second female pharaoh, Hatshepsut was a master strategist, cloaking her political power plays in the veil of piety and sexual reinvention. She successfully negotiated a path from the royal nursery to the very pinnacle of authority, and her reign saw one of Ancient Egypt’s most prolific building periods. Constructing a rich narrative history using the artifacts that remain, noted Egyptologist Kara Cooney offers a remarkable interpretation of how Hatshepsut rapidly but methodically consolidated power—and why she fell from public favor just as quickly. The Woman Who Would Be King traces the unconventional life of an almost-forgotten pharaoh and explores our complicated reactions to women in power. |

| hatshepsut leadership style: Daughter of the Gods Stephanie Thornton, 2014-05-06 Egypt, 1400s BC. The pharaoh’s pampered second daughter, lively, intelligent Hatshepsut, delights in racing her chariot through the marketplace and testing her archery skills in the Nile’s marshlands. But the death of her elder sister, Neferubity, in a gruesome accident arising from Hatshepsut’s games forces her to confront her guilt...and sets her on a profoundly changed course. Hatshepsut enters a loveless marriage with her half brother, Thut, to secure his claim to the Isis Throne and produce a male heir. But it is another of Thut’s wives, the commoner Aset, who bears him a son, while Hatshepsut develops a searing attraction for his brilliant adviser Senenmut. And when Thut suddenly dies, Hatshepsut becomes de facto ruler, as regent to her two-year-old nephew. Once, Hatshepsut anticipated being free to live and love as she chose. Now she must put Egypt first. Ever daring, she will lead a vast army and build great temples, but always she will be torn between the demands of leadership and the desires of her heart. And even as she makes her boldest move of all, her enemies will plot her downfall.... Once again, Stephanie Thornton brings to life a remarkable woman from the distant past whose willingness to defy tradition changed the course of history. |

| hatshepsut leadership style: Out of the Black Land Kerry Greenwood, 2018-09-01 Eighteenth Dynasty Egypt is peaceful and prosperous under the dual rule of the Pharaohs Amenhotep III and IV, until the younger Pharaoh begins to dream new and terrifying dreams. Ptah-hotep, a young peasant boy studying to be a scribe, wants to live a simple life in a Nile hut with his lover Kheperren and their dog Wolf. But Amenhotep IV appoints him as Great Royal Scribe. Surrounded by bitterly envious rivals and enemies, how long will Ptah-hotep survive? The child-princess Mutnodjme sees her beautiful sister Nefertiti married off to the impotent young Amenhotep. But Nefertiti must bear royal children, so the ladies of the court devise a shocking plan. Kheperren, meanwhile, serves as scribe to the daring teenage General Horemheb. But while the Pharaoh's shrinking army guards the Land of the Nile from enemies on every border, a far greater menace impends. For, not content with his own devotion to one god alone, the newly-renamed Akhnaten plans to suppress the worship of all other gods in the Black Land. His horrified court soon realise that the Pharaoh is not merely deformed, but irretrievably mad; and that the biggest danger to the Empire is in the royal palace itself. |
| hatshepsut leadership style: Forgotten Pyramid Kings Sanjay Desai, AI, 2025-02-20 Forgotten Pyramid Kings explores the often-overlooked pharaohs of ancient Egypt's Old and Middle Kingdoms, revealing their significant contributions to pyramid construction and Egyptian society. It examines how these ancient rulers, overshadowed by figures like Khufu, shaped the evolution of pyramid complexes and influenced the economic and religious landscape of their time. The book argues that pyramid construction was deeply intertwined with Egypt's stability and cohesion, not just royal ambition. The book uncovers intriguing facts, such as the evolution from the Step Pyramid of Djoser to later designs, showcasing engineering advancements. It also scrutinizes the reigns and pyramid projects of pharaohs like Userkaf, highlighting their administrative policies and religious innovations. Through archaeological findings and recent Egyptology scholarship, the book re-evaluates traditional interpretations, offering a nuanced perspective on these ancient rulers. Divided into three sections, the book first introduces the evolution of pyramid construction. The second section delves into detailed biographies of forgotten kings, and the final section synthesizes these findings, examining patterns and trends to understand why some pharaohs faded into obscurity despite significant contributions. Forgotten Pyramid Kings offers a valuable perspective, shifting focus to less-celebrated figures to provide a broader understanding of ancient Egyptian society and pyramid construction. |

[A] rich portrait of ancient Egypt’s complex evolution over the course of three millenniums.”—Los Angeles Times NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The Washington Post • Publishers Weekly In this landmark volume, one of the world’s most renowned Egyptologists tells the epic story of this great civilization, from its birth as the first nation-state to its absorption into the Roman Empire. Drawing upon forty years of archaeological research, award-winning scholar Toby Wilkinson takes us inside a tribal society with a pre-monetary economy and decadent, divine kings who ruled with all-too-recognizable human emotions. Here are the legendary leaders: Akhenaten, the “heretic king,” who with his wife Nefertiti brought about a revolution with a bold new religion; Tutankhamun, whose dazzling tomb would remain hidden for three millennia; and eleven pharaohs called Ramesses, the last of whom presided over the militarism, lawlessness, and corruption that caused a political and societal decline. Filled with new information and unique interpretations, The Rise and Fall of Ancient Egypt is a riveting and revelatory work of wild drama, bold spectacle, unforgettable characters, and sweeping history. “With a literary flair and a sense for a story well told, Mr. Wilkinson offers a highly readable, factually up-to-date account.”—The Wall Street Journal “[Wilkinson] writes with considerable verve. . . .

| hatshepsut leadership style: Gender, Race, and Ethnicity in the Workplace Margaret Foegen Karsten, 2006-07-30 Despite tremendous strides that have led to increasing numbers of women and minorities entering the workplace and achieving positions of power and influence, there is still much ground to be gained. Blending theory and practice, statistics and analysis, this three-volume set presents the latest research from the fields of management, sociology, psychology, law, and public policy to shed new light on the dynamics of gender and race/ethnicity in the workplace. The first volume details the corporate paths of women and minorities to date, highlighting continuing challenges and gaps. Volumes 2 and 3 tackle such complex issues as: corporation socialization and how it excludes women and minorities; the impact of affirmative action decisions on practice and policy; the fine line between office romance and sexual harassment; and work-life balance. These volumes also showcase innovative practices in promoting diversity and leadership development. Featuring contributions from such influential authors as Nancy Adler, Gail Evans, and Gary Powell, this set presents a unique collection of perspectives on the dynamics of race, ethnicity, and gender in the workplace, and considers how they both reflect and reinforce the culture at large. Since women were first admitted to the Harvard-Radcliffe business program in 1959, they have made remarkable progress in assuming leadership and management positions traditionally held by white men; more recently, African-, Asian-, Hispanic-, and Native-American women and men have joined the professional realm in increasing numbers —with profound implications for organizations. Nevertheless, the statistics still tell a discouraging story: women make up nearly 50 percent of the workforce, but only 16 percent of the corporate officer pool in America's 500 largest companies; for every dollar a white man earns, a black man earns 76 cents; in a recent survey, 70 percent of women cited lack of an influential mentor as a key obstacle to attaining business success. The leading business experts assembled here consider what is behind these statistics and what can be done to change the culture that creates them.

Bible scholar Nahum Sarna, whose widely praised Understanding Genesis has become a standard text, examines and illuminates the distinctiveness of the Exodus narrative in light of ancient Near Eastern history and contemporaneous cultures—Egyptian, Assyrian, Canaanite, and Babylonian. In a new foreword to this edition, Sarna takes up the debate over whether the exodus from Egypt really happened, clarifying the arguments on both sides and drawing us back to the uniqueness and enduring significance of biblical text. |
| hatshepsut leadership style: Cleopatra Joyce Tyldesley, 2008-08-05 The Romans regarded her as fatale monstrum -- a fatal omen. Pascal said the shape of her nose changed the history of the world. Shakespeare portrayed her as an icon of tragic love. But who was Cleopatra, really? We almost feel that we know Cleopatra, but our distorted image of a self-destructive beauty does no justice to Cleopatra's true genius. In Cleopatra, Egyptologist Joyce Tyldesley offers an unexpectedly vivid portrait of a skillful Egyptian ruler. Stripping away our preconceptions, many of them as old as Egypt's Roman conquerors, Cleopatra is a magnificent biography of a most extraordinary queen. |
