10. 3. Good Listener
It is very important to listen to your employees grievances and
suggestions from time to time. Women are considered as better
listeners as compared to men, simply because of their high level
of patience.
It is vital to take decisions keeping employee benefits in mind,
and that cannot happen till the time you listen to them.
Happy team = Better results

Women usually have more patience than men. So, when it
comes to keeping employees happy and taking care of their
concerns, they excel in this aspect.
Patience helps us to deal with employees, customers, business
partners. Not many consider it important, but it is one of the
vital attributes of a leader that can significantly improve a
team’s attitude.

14. 5. Nurturing New Talent
Another "maternal instinct" that women are known for. They
take special care of the newbies and help them learn.

job and must be taken seriously.
