How Female Leaders Are Changing The World with DAWN ANDREWS

Oftentimes when we talk about more women becoming leaders in business, we measure their new roles to the standard of the “old boys club.” <br/><br/>What if instead of expecting women to lead the same way, we let them take their seat at the table and do things their own way?Women exhibit certain soft skills that are crucial to the success of a company, and research shows that their high level of collaboration and empowerment can be more beneficial than the old-school authoritative style.
