Many factors affect leadership style. No one can conclude that men’s leadership skills are better than women’s abilities or vice versa. The experience and exposure people have to influence leadership skills. Therefore, this paper will discuss how men and women differ in their leadership styles as it relates to power and the approaches to the latter. Women’s leadership has advanced, and many women have been on the rise in direction. Women’s managerial skills are prudent, possibly because of responsibility duties bestowed to them by society. Also, some research has shown that female leaders are more willing to make an extra effort to deliver quality skills. Women teams are more efficient in most cases in comparison with the male manager. However, male leadership is more authoritative compared to women’s leadership. What matters is the passion for leading and the intrinsic motivation to perform duties. Therefore, contextual guidance is dependent on the attitude of the leader and…

Sex and Gender Development in Children The concepts of sex and gender begin to develop from an early age. The book has suggested different theories that attempt to explain the two concepts. One of the most notable approaches is Bandura’s social learning theory. Instead of studying animals and applying on how humans behave and relate with others to humans, Bandura argued that humanslearn by utilizing innate cognitive abilities to imitate others. As children grow up, they are assigned responsibilities based on gender, as determined by their sex. Boys are expected to have “masculine” traits, while girls would have “feminine” traits. Although genetics predetermine some traits, the role socialization plays in this can not be understated. Communities such as the Eskimo taught boys to build houses while girls were not (Crain, p236). The ability to learn from socialization and imitations helps shape the behavior and conduct of children up to their adulthood. Children can gain values such as altruism from adults. In one experiment, children who observed an adult donate to the less fortunate learned to emulate his by giving more…

Before his death, Alfred clearly stated that the interest from the investment of his wealth should get annually distributed in the form of awards to those who, during the preceding year, shall have conferred the most significant benefit on humanity (Richard, 2000). The prizes have become an important symbol of scientific achievement and discovery and they annually generates enormous interest in the scientific community and the general public (Yves and Mathews, 2009) . Alfred Nobel made it clear for all fields that there would be no favouritism accorded when giving the prices, instead, the most worthy candidate, regardless of their nationality would receive the prize. It is not clear the criteria applied by the Nobel committees when nominating science candidates, but they have seemingly remained fixed over a long period evident in the gender bias. According to Hillevi (2016), an intelligent woman cannot be a real woman because it is only men,…
