Do women use different influences?

Abstract

This study builds on an earlier one published in Women in Management Review Vol 2 No 3, that investigated the power bases that women use to influence their subordinates. The current investigation was undertaken to determine whether men differed from women in how they exert influence on their staff. There is a general lack of research comparing how male and female supervisors influence their subordinates, but it is needed to establish whether men and women differ when they hold managerial positions.
