Write an essay on women are the best leaders for the 21st century
Answers
There have of course been famous women leaders in the 20th Century and earlier such as Indira Gandhi, Margaret Thatcher and Golda Meir, but many would say their success was due to the fact they were more like men than the men around them. For the 21st Century. I am talking about a different kind of woman leader.
Recent research publicised in the UK's The Sunday Times, sourced from Barclays Wealth & Investment Management Survey http://thetim.es/14ne1Jt explains that the top self-made women (entrepreneurs) earn more than the top men by 17% whereas the top corporate women leaders earn 21% less than their male equivalents.
This suggests that if we remove the cultural restraints of the male dominated corporate world, women perform better than men in the 21st century. It is interesting to also note that 6% of women in the UK are entrepreneurs (up from 4% in 2008) compared to 12% of men in the UK and 10% of women in the USA.
