Someone said "Gender is not factor to determine the managerial capacity", the why the numbers (there are only 2% women CEO) suggest otherwise, don't tell me men dominate, its the law of nature that the fittest dominate, and if you say men dominate then what you really mean is that men dominate.

@ "Now scenario has changed" - the present women make less than 20% of top managerial position in spite of all reservation and special treatment, and if what you mean is that in future women will outnumber men, then come to me when that happen,

@ "Women are more balanced and loving" - really never heard of buddha, jesus, or vivrkananda, name a women who have done it better,

@ "Women manage home and office" - well what can I say to that, good luck with that,

@ "Women list is endless, don't underestimate them" - nobody is underestimating the, but you should come and see the men's list its much bigger.

@ "Both have same brains" - then why such a big disparity in accomplishment.

@ "Prathiba patil, ekata kapoor and other names that I not heard" - really those are best names you have got, can you even compare those names with gandhi, edison, steve jobs or alexander.

Obviously Women are good managers. Gender discrimination and male dominance are hindering the females to step ahead and prove themselves. Otherwise, Women are born manager because whether it's a mom or a daughter or a wife.

A women always manages everything better. We can see examples such as in Rajasthan few women had started making papad and later their recipe is famous in all over the world. They now brought millions of turnover and helps in developing countries economy. The name of the company is "Lijjat papad".

So, its not matter whether you are male or female, the think matter is the managerial aspect and core knowledge in your respective fields.

Regarding the issues that many friends have mentioned earlier that Women physique are weak. So, they don't able to handle the field works. With the advancement in technology in today's era. Everything is automated and their are males who work under managers. So, individually if they are unable to complete the task, then team work will help it. As management is also about team work or working in a group.

So, if The developing country want to be a develop country. Than it has to make a mindset "No gender discrimination". And both men as well as women should support equally for the nation's bright future. Which makes us best one day.

From my point of, the term good manager is not related to gender. Either man/women become good manager with their knowledge their skills, their management skills With good quality of quick decision, loving nature, patients, not quickly aggressive and better ability to convince to people easily then man is the positive nature of women.

And women have to understand sometimes without any saying other people. Women are good at mind reading very easily.

So my conclusion of this is that by various skills, More and more knowledge good communication skills people can make good manager.

AS far as good managers are concerned, one who leads and helps others to prosper in his group or organisation is said to be possessing qualities of good manager. By saying this, I meant that given topic is not based on gender. Good manager requires ethics, personality, leadership quality, communication etc. Since all these qualities can be possessed by any of the male/female managers. (For eg. Arudhanti bhattacharya, Kiran majumdar shaw, Chanda kocher, Indra nooyi, steve jobs, Bill gates, Mukesh ambani etc. ).

So my point of saying is that good managers requires hard work, exceptional talent and out of box thinking. A person or human who have above all qualities develop himself to be a good managers.

According to my opinion, now-a-days women plays a key role in every field and in every organisation as bank CEOs and CMDs. In this year women of some organisations are the awareness of FICCI. So, the women make the management in any field.

According to me women are better managers because they need not built this quality rather it is inherit in them. How as women are naturally proves to be the best person in managing the household activities. So if they are given chance to manage the organization they will prove to be the best managers.

Because they have the quality of managing different kind of persons at a particular point of time. For e.g. She knows it very well how to solve conflicts b/w two people, how to meet the different demands of employees etc.

Yes I'm in favour of this statement. Women have the inbuilt ability to manage things efficiently. The example is the housewife. She has a list of things in her hand to do, like looking after the children, making them ready for school, preparing lunch/breakfast for them and for her husband. After she finishes her morning tasks, she has to then look after the house cleanliness or at the kitchen stocks.

So these sequential work automatically makes her efficient in performing the tasks. Therefore it can also be said that women are good at multitasking. So when it comes to an Organisation, they can apply their inherent traits. She has to deal with a lot of corporate relationships, employees, etc as according to her position in the organisation.

As someone said already, it is a fact that women are more calm and patient than men, ya but there are some exceptions where this point fails. They are also able to manage by virtue of their good communication skills and soft voice.

My conclusion is that women are better managers than men as seen in general but from personal point of view anyone (whether male or female) can be a good manager provided he has achieved the basic skills required through training or practice.

I think it's not depends up on gender. Its depend up on the ability, skill, good knowledge of management. Both have same brain. Mind capacity depend up on hard work about these things. I agree now a days women are good organisation and good management. Women are good manager.
