Celebrate Women in History Month

Did you know that 1/2 to 2/3’s of all fortune 500 CEO’s are incompetent and are fired for poor performance and lack of ethics, and almost all of them are men?

Have you ever heard of a woman leader being fired for ethical reasons?

This is because women tend to more ethical AND inspirational.

The latest research shows that the most successful leaders care more about developing their followers, listen to them and encourage them to “think outside the box”.

It turns out women leaders are more likely to have these qualities than men.

For women’s history month, we are revisiting a powerful interview with Dr. Alice Eagley, a prolific author and one of the most respected researchers on women and gender.
