Women’s Leadership Attributes
Smart companies are aware of the growing economic power of women consumers and are taking steps now to gain market advantage with this population. Some are responding by growing women leaders capable of integrating feminine thinking into the company’s business plans, strategies and culture. In order to grow the business, these women must be accepted as equals among their peers. For this to happen, the very model of what is considered good leadership has to incorporate feminine as well as masculine attributes.
Germane Consulting’s research on women’s leadership will be of interest to these companies. Interviews with dozens of male and female leaders indicates that women bring a very specific set of attributes and that these same attributes are more critical to the success of all leaders than they were 20 years ago.
