Join us for our CHDCM IE Lunch and Lead hosted by Dr. Jennifer, Assistant Professor in the Department of Education Leadership, Management and Policy at the College of Human Development, Culture, and Media (CHDCM). Dr. Timmer will share her research focused on the gender disparities in principal salaries, how pathways to the superintendency differ by race and gender, and the “glass cliff” phenomenon of hiring women into precarious leadership positions.
Dr. Timmer’s research focuses on representation, access, and compensation in the principalship and superintendency, and how quantitative methods can help advance equity in education. She was awarded a grant from the Seton Hall University Research Council to compile a rich statewide longitudinal data set appropriate for research on education leaders in New Jersey and is using this data set to investigate representation of newly hired leaders in precarious positions as defined by student achievement or school/district funding levels.
