This week we focus on – Women in Management and Management training courses in Cork
Although progress has been made over the years, men still occupy many of the top management positions in organisations and also the proportion of women decline at each stage of the career path. However a recent study concluded that women are better suited to leadership than men.
In this study, the personality and characteristics of nearly 3000 managers were assessed. Women outperformed men in 4 of the 5 categories studied below. However men did appear to be better than women at dealing with the 5th category of work-related stress.
- initiative and clear communication
- openness and ability to innovate
- sociability and supportiveness
- methodical management and goal-setting
Some of the most popular career areas accounting for women in management tend to be:
- Human Resource Management
- Medical/Health Services Management
- Public Relations/Fundraising Managers
- Social and Community Managers
- Education Administrators
- Training and Development Managers
- Advertising Managers
- Financial Managers
