Women of the world are claiming their rightful spot in every domain of the professional world. An increasing number of women are gradually asserting themselves as leaders in entrepreneurship, administration, education, finance, engineering, health, and various other fields at the regional, national, and global levels. Determined to break through the traditional glass ceiling that has prevented them from achieving leadership positions, irrespective of their skill or capabilities, more and more women are gaining positions of power in the corporate world.
The fact remains, that women are in no way inferior in terms of capability when it comes to leadership roles. In fact, several studies have found that women prove to be better leaders than men due to their ability to balance professional and personal leadership skills. According to numerous surveys, women have higher emotional intelligence and stronger soft skills. So, more opportunities for women to lead in businesses and organisations can lead to increased productivity and, ultimately, a better bottom line.
A survey says, organisations with female CEOs outperform their male counterparts as they bring special demographic skills on to the table. They take better care of their staff, improve reward systems and provide more flexibility. Women-led businesses are more likely to lessen internal corporate governance turmoil, and better management monitoring leads to improved transparency and performance. However, being the CEO of a company is no cakewalk. It is an all-consuming role that requires a great deal of expertise and experience in the respective field.
