Study On Female Leaders' Leadership Charisma And Leadership Style

For a long time, the female are always being relatively weak position in society. They are bound up because of the influence of thousands years of Feudal thoughts. They are discriminated and got rid of the mainstream of society, their voice are submerged in the world where the male control the most things of the society.With the development of history and the progress of society, the female's society position has increased tremendously. The female take part in such as science, education, culture, sports and political fields etc. Among them, a great many of female leaders have come into being, and they out of question are the excellent represents of the female. This essay is mainly study the special colony, i.e. how the female leaders show their leadership charisma and leadership styles in this society where the male are still the main controllers. At the same time, I wish this essay may provides some direction and reference for more female leaders, and it may provides some help for those female who are going to be excellent leaders in future.This essay was completed through interviewing a few female leaders, and then analysis and comprehend their ideas according to the interview. Considering the different characteristics of organizations, I interviewed 6 female leaders come from enterprise, government and university respectively. Among them, three from enterprise(one from the state-owned enterprise, one from private enterprise and the other from foreign enterprise), one from government, and the other two from university. Through interviewing them face to face, I try to capture their wonderfulworking methods and catch their working experiences, so that to analysis their leadership charisma and leadership styles.I discover after studying that there are a lot of familiar parts for the female's leadership charisma and leadership styles. Of course, all of them have their own leadership characters. The discoveries are as follows:1. Leadership charisma:i, All the interviewees agree that "feeling factor" acts as an important role in their leadership. They believe that "touching people with feelings" will "get twice the result with half the effort", which shows that their exquisite feelings, their love and kind hearts will tremendously advance their leadership work, while, these are their advantages compare with the male, the interviewees agree that kindness and feeling are their exceptional advantages. The special "maternal instinct" love of the female's are surely to melt every freezing heart.ii, All interviewees agree that "action is louder than speaking", "doing in person" is one of their important working principles, therefore, all of them will set up "role model" in the course of working.iii, The saying goes: "women are not weaker than men", the interviewees believe that there are no difference between women leadership abilities compare with men's. The difference lies in the leadership behaviors.iiii It is confidence that makes them charisma, which leaves me deep impression. Confidence is the main factor for their success.2. Leadership stylesi. The study discovers that the three interviewees who come from enterprises think their employees are belong to X theory, however, they will change their ideas according to the employees level, the organizational characters, organizational scale and organizational environment. While, the two interviewees who come from university believe that their employees belong to Y theory. ii. Not all female leaders take democratic leadership style, they will take such asdictatorship or noninterference leadership styles in accordance with the change ofenvironment.iii. The interviewees don't take use of transactional leadership which is widely usedat present, however, they mainly take transformational leadership. It shows that thefemale leaders' innovation spirit is not lower than that of the male's, which makesthem outstanding and succeed in enterprise.iiii. Not all the female leaders take "employee orientation" leadership style, on thecontrary, some of them even take "task orientation" leadership style. They show highenergy and working enthusiasm.iiiii. This study also discovers that not all female leaders exert only one gendercharacter on leadership, some of them take use of neutral character leadership, someeven take use of male character leadership, some combine male character withfemale character in their leadership role.In short, through interviewing in person for more than one month and communication with them face to face make me believe that: women are not the weak! They have the same working enthusiasm and working abilities, they are energetic and charisma! as long as there are fair opportunities, they will do as well as men!...
