Fact: Women Make Better Leaders
Manage episode 366015242 series 2992188
We know women are the far superior species. The world would LITERALLY cease to exist without us.
While I find myself smiling wide when I say that, this isn’t just my beliefs..
The research is in, women are better leaders.
Here’s a stat that will blow your mind.
Of the S&P 500, there are 459 male CEOs and 41 female CEOs. The companies that have women as CEOs have significantly outperformed the companies run by men. Over the past 10 years, the difference in returns is 384% from female-led companies vs. 261% from male-led companies
Across the board, women outperform men on all (or most depending on the research) leadership measures. As woman leaders, we must trust ourselves and lean into our inherent feminine traits. This means throwing away the masculine energy many of us thought we had to take on in order to be an effective leader. Hint, those traits don’t work.
Tomorrow’s leaders need to embrace and lead with female traits. Listen up as we talk all about Leading like a Woman.

In this episode, we’re talking about…
- Why we need to stop trying to take on the leadership traits we’ve learned through osmosis from men and instead, lean in and trust our own instincts and leadership style.
- Recognizing to take on male energy will not support our growth
- Why women have a greater sense of EQ than men
- How collaboration, communication, and inclusion are a superpower and needed more than ever
- Women outperform men in more than the “soft skills” – we outperform them in initiative, resilience, driving results, inspiring others, coaching others, bold leadership, relationships, creativity, honesty, transformation, leading change, and innovation
- The neuroscience of women managing stress better than men
“Soft-skills are the emerging superpowers of business.—Gary Vaynerchuk”
DO THIS ONE THING: ASK SOMEONE ON YOUR TEAM OR AT WORK, WHAT ARE TWO QUALITIES THAT MAKE YOU A GREAT LEADER. THEN CHOSE ONE THING TO ENHANCE THIS SKILL EVEN MORE.
