Their speaking skill is actually innate – born with it. Since they are usually more supportive, more inclined to delegate responsibilities and more willing tofoster the careers of their employees than their male counterparts, they communicate more efficiently. As a result, employees are happy to share ideas with their female boss and feel excited to have their voice heard in making decisions.Another example of women's natural management style is being more relationship-oriented. As we well understand, women are more emotionallyand spiritually intelligent. This gives them the potential to be a more understanding boss than men. They know how to motivate their employeeswith human touches such as "get well" cards and "thank you" notes.
