8 Things A Female Boss Needs To Learn
The world is undergoing changes in every respect. Talks of gender equality are always doing rounds and surveys are often conducted to find the number of females at top levels in organizations. A different type of survey is also done at intervals to find out the preference of having a female boss or a male one.
It is true that compared to earlier times there are a certain percent of people who prefer to have a female boss but still the numbers are very less.
Many of you out there must have had a brush with a female boss at some point of time in your career. As per survey finding most people have been uncomfortable with a female at the top and you too might be one of them. How many times have you found yourself silently saying ‘there is a lot you need to learn boss’?
It is true, majority of the executives working under a female head have claimed to be very uncomfortable due to the working method of the boss. At the same time she being the boss there is very little that the reporting team can do to improve situations.
Let us list down a certain number of things that a boss needs to learn, female bosses in particular. If we look closely most of these learning are largely related to basic female behavior.
Maintain personal boundaries: Every person desires to have his or her own space. As a boss it is important understand and maintain personal boundaries so as to enable smooth functioning of business affairs.
Workplace has no place for personal talk: As a boss one needs to realize that personal matters cannot be brought in between business matters. In fact many people are not comfortable discussing personal matters, be it their own or others’.
Be to the point: It is often believed that women, definitely not, are not clear with their thoughts and give vague instructions. Every woman out there managing a team or leading an organization must realize the importance of being to the point. It not only makes understanding easy but also erases doubts.
Give clear instruction: Never beat around the bush. If you wish to have a particular job done in a certain manner make it clear at the outset. If required put it down in writing and circulate it among your subordinates.
Respect other peoples’ views: Being a good boss means bringing out the best in your team. As a boss make sure to respect the views and opinions of your team mates and discuss their feasibility.
Do not lean over the shoulder: Not in the literal sense but constantly leaning over a subordinate’s shoulder can prove to be quite annoying. If it concerns the completion of a work give a definite time and date for deliverance and gracefully wait for it.
Be firm not rude: In times of disapproval it is tact that that needs to be applied. What you need to learn female bosses is that firmness works better that being rude. On the contrary a rude attitude can have a very bad effect on the team’s functioning.
Personal problems are not professional ones: Everyone has a personal life and a professional life but at the same time it is important to keep the two apart. No subordinate or team member is interested in learning about what happened at the bosses place.
Bosses can be of various kinds irrespective of the gender. At the same time it cannot be denied that the majority of the people who sight a preference for a boss gender vote in favor of males. Like it or not this is one area where one has to say to females that there sure is a lot to learn boss from the male counterpart.
