@"Gender discrimination and male domination are hindering the females" - Gender discrimination? you are kidding right, all I see around is reservations and special treatments for women's, whether it be government post or a seat in the parliament, and talking about the domination, well its the law of nature that fittest dominate.
@"In Rajasthan women's are making papad" - wow now what do I say to that, you are doing a marvelous job.
@"Womens are good at house hold activity" - if you think house hold work and being a Entrepreneur is the same thing, you have no idea what you talking about.
@"Women are playing a key role in every field as CEO and CMD" - women's are only 2% of the CEO's and only about 20% of top managerial level all over the company, and if you think that is the key role, you have got to work on your mathematics skills.
When you say that women's are wonderful managers and find them so badly outnumbered in that aspect, don't you think something is wrong with your whole argument there, its like saying that snail has all qualities for being a good runner, but out there they don't run.

Before starting the discussion I would like to explain the word what actually manager means. A manager is a person who manage every thing, take care the organisational profit, set up a link between his or her employee for further progress of company or organisation. So the definition reflect the post or the designation is not depend upon gender or sexuality.
A Person having a good responsibility, personality, ethics, capability of understanding the fact, leadership quality and communication skill can groom himself or herself for the post of the manager.
In Indian economical market there is a plenty no. of example where the managerial post are hold by men and woman simultaneously. Chanda Kochhar is the MD of ICICI bank, Arundhuti Bhattacharya plays a top role in SBI BANK, KIRAN MAZUMDER-SHAW is the MD of Biocon Limited.
On the other we can name Kumar Mangalam Birla, Harse Neotia, Mukesh Ambani as a good manger. So my point is that a deserving person should hold the right position beyond of any sort of sexual reservation.

By reading this discussion you guys are supporting or saying the women can be a best manager. All the points what you said are all OK. You guys don't have confident on yourself?They manage both family and work so that then can be a best manager.
My simple question is that in our home if we want to take any financial decision we discuss it to our father not only financial but also for many major decisions. So that a man can be good decision maker. By this I say that man is a best manager than women.

From the ancient time people underestimate women and think them as a machine for all of their household works. They were categorized in the line of animals as you know the lines of Tulsidas.
According to my opinion women are best managers. Do not go far for the example but see in your own house how your mother, sister or wife manages in those situations when you are confused what to do and for more information about women's capability you must read history of India and you must have a friendly mentality about women too.

In my point of view I personally think think that women is far better than men because if you see the whole life of a women than you see that she have to face many relation in her life firstly she is a daughter who have to live in certain limit and at the same time she have to study and do household chores also and after that when she get married than she become mother and she have to look up both families and her child which her husband to fulfill all the desires ect, so the women are inherent from the childhood only she can have a better management then men.

I think both men and women are best managers, but why man only having more percentage than women is, we are not giving chance to them, to prove what they are, if we give chances to them also then we can see the equal percentage between men and women. Not only in management but in kinds of works. So, their is no chance that men only good manger, both are equal only.

I thinks that, women & men both are same capabilities to handle an organization & its totally depends upon to whom we are giving more chance or responsibilities & how we encourage them, if give chance to women to handle organization, she will definitely give more result & output then any man. Women are more organized than man. So it is totally false that only men are good manager.

Educating women can bring up great changes in a country like India because if women are educated they can change the world as they will not be dependent on their husband's for buying anything as women will be earning in the highly qualified company.

If you ask my point of view I would say definitely they can make good managers because our society neglected women from the past to perform any outdoor activities. They were forced to manage house, husband, children and cooking all the times.
Women took that job as a challenge and now their achievement is if anybody ask a women can you cook? Can you manage house, children, husband etc. Then anyone can say you are asking a stupid question. She is a woman and that is inbuilt in her.
Now think for a while and say if the management work was provided to women, they would have done justice to the same job, not because they are good managers but they are sincere and efficient to perform any duty.

In my opinion either man or woman can be the good manager. It all depends on his/her mind set, ability, exposure to situations, communication etc. People just say that only men or women are good managers. It is because some situations made them think like that. No wrong in their opinions too.
People who support men are thinking that men are good managers because til now many reputed, goodwill earned companies have only men as CEO's, top level managers. So basing on this they concluded that men are good managers. People supporting women because they manage home, family, office etc. men cannot do that.
But I won't support only men or only women. Because to be good managers first chance is to be given to prove that they are the good managers. If women are employed in top position in companies they will prove them selves and they have proved it. Men can also be good house managers and they are even doing that so today every woman can go and work.
Finally both men and women will be the good managers but the only thing is chance should be given to prove themselves.
