There is a plethora amount of information about leadership and endless articles.

One article, "What Television’s First Woman President Has To Teach Us" discussed women in leadership which is highly important because women have started to break the glass ceiling. It is no longer rare to see a female CEO or manager which to me is such a great accomplishment. Even though women are not completely considered equals, there have been great strides made to providing more equality. In addition, this article discusses this particular leaders communication style. Her communication style is laid back but one that demands respect. So not only do her followers respect and listen to her but also feel comfortable around her. Having a unique communication style that appeals to followers can help a leader be more effective. It is important to find your personal communication style as a leader.

Also, women were not usually considered an authoritarian figure therefore women have to create authority but they have to do this while still keeping their feminine aspects and not appearing too masculine. So when women communicate they need to consider their volume and projecting while they talk, possibly lowering the pitch of their voice, and avoid intonation to help build authority and credibility. It is not difficulty enough for females to try and obtain these positions in the first place but now we have to think of all the factors that go into being a female leader such as our voice, appearance, and gaining respect.
