Women as Managers

Paper Summary:

This essay explains why the historically traditional roles of women have made them well-prepared for managerial positions in the workplace today. The paper points to the numerous responsibilities and roles women were required to perform in their traditional roles and how these roles required not only the ability to multi-task but the ability to communicate well and establish relationships. The paper further contends that these traditional roles have, in time, evolved into an innate ability to manage job responsibilities and employees in the work place and, therefore, have provided women with innate advantages for filling managerial positions.

From the Paper:

"Do women have an innate advantage as managers in the workplace? Absolutely. No matter where you look or how you research articles come up with two common themes. The first one being that men are more prominent in the work place, and particularly in management positions though this is slowly changing with women moving out of their so called normal spheres of the home where they have been raising a family and out of the community where they have been fulfilling the many needs of the young, the old and or the disabled. The other is that women are becoming more of a force to be reckoned with in the workplace and that though there isn't a majority of women in management positions yet this scene will be played out in our lives in the future of the business world."
