Dear ValpoCellans:
The Chartered Management Institute's head of policy, Petra
Cook, has stated:
"In general, a female management culture is more
participatory, consultative and empowering. Women are
challenging the old-style organisations that are
bureaucratic and autocratic."
That sounds to me like a good recipe for establishing a
culture of creativity and innovation in organisations. What
do you think? What is your experience? Are women managers
more likely to create an environment that favours.
creativity and innovation?
(The quote came from an article in The Guardian newspaper
about women managers now getting higher levels of pay than
men in the UK - the full article is at:
