Abstract

I discuss three issues:  first, a main problem:  the implicit biases that disadvantage women philosophers at nearly all stages of their careers as well as the phenomenon of stereotype that can lead women to underperform intellectually; second, the value of mentoring and sponsorship for strategically positioning women to eventually assume leadership roles in philosophy; and third, what women philosophers can do in leadership roles, in particular, including other women and helping to advance their careers.
