Strike the right note as a woman manager

Slowly but surely, women are breaking the glass ceiling and entering the management ranks in increasing numbers. Though still few in number, women do make it to executive positions and even the C-suite. Now this brings us to another colossal frontier: managing men working under women and even older ones at that – many of whom would rather be working for a man any day (a harsh fact corroborated by a recent Gallup poll)! Sexism still rears its ugly head as some men not only have a problem taking orders from a woman, but also prefer to turn to other men for guidance and decision-making.
