Are Women More “People-Oriented” Leaders?
[ send me this essay ]
This 6 page report discusses the time-honored assumption, at least in modern times, that women are more people-oriented leaders than men. Are women more people-oriented and greater believers in “participative” management? There is only one definitive answer and it is not particularly satisfying. That answer is -- “it depends.” Many social scientists commonly maintain that there is no empirical basis for assuming that gender has a direct influence on leadership style. Others researchers are convinced that female leaders are more concerned about interpersonal relationships and use a more democratic and participative leadership style than do men. Research on the issue is examined. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

Athol Fugard's "The Road To Mecca"
[ send me this essay ]
10 pages in length. No one likes to be branded as different from the social norm, especially when such unwarranted labeling is founded within a quagmire of gender, cultural and racial intolerance. Miss Helen, of Athol Fugard's The Road to Mecca, represents just such a person whose only crime against society is being her own person, asking nothing of anyone and only wanting to be accepted for the unique individual she truly is. What she receives instead is a barrage of unsubstantiated judgment as to the validity of her character, the constant challenge to assimilate into the norm and a general yet overwhelming understanding of how a woman's entire existence is inextricable linked with the presence of a man; once that link is broken, she is no longer worthy of regard as an individual. Expounding upon issues of aging, personal freedom, human worth, loneliness, individuality, defiance against the norm, religious directives Religion and the never-ending quest for spirituality, Fugard strives to bring forth the extent to which people create conflict on so many levels, not the least of which include religious/secular, young/old and gender. Bibliography lists 11 sources.
