This document discusses whether women make good managers. It provides definitions of a manager and qualities of a good manager such as confidence, communication skills, and patience. It then cites studies by Gallup that found employees with female managers were more likely to feel encouraged, receive recognition, and have discussed career progress. Gallup's conclusion is that organizations should hire and promote more female managers as they exceed male managers in meeting employee needs. Examples are given of successful female business leaders in India demonstrating women's effectiveness as managers. The conclusion is that while both men and women can be good managers based on qualities, studies show women have skills that make them well-suited to the management role.
