Created in partnership with The Case for Women and Forté, these are winning cases from a case writing competition dedicated to the female protagonist.
The cases show women in leadership roles, performing effectively in those roles and working in partnership with other women. There are now 25 winning cases available on Emerald Insight, each complete with teaching notes.
The competition was first launched in 2020 and following its success has continued each year.

We need more women role models for female students to read about – and more importantly for students to read about more than one woman in each case. Not just a lone woman at the top.
