Where are the women managers of India ?
Worldmapper.org is an interesting site that provides maps of the world based on different parameters. Here's the map from the number of female managers perspective.
India does not even figure in the map properly! It is interesting to note that the US and Europe are leaders here. It comes as no surprise that they constitute the "first world". Economic progress is crucially dependent on harnessing woman power and by neglecting women we are effectively at 50% of our potential. Unless our politicians do something besides lip service, India is in trouble. Judy Rosener seems to agree in her book America's Competitive Secret: Women Managers and sums up the difference between men and women with this line: "Women speak and hear a language of connection and intimacy, and men speak and hear a language of status and independence. Men communicate to obtain information, establish their status, and show independence. Women communicate to create relationships, encourage interaction and exchange feelings." The funny thing is that even in a "developed" country like Australia, women managers seem to be on a decline as this management blog indicates.
