Today‘s globalized nature of competitiveness is placing more pressure on organizations to employ effective leaders, males or females, who are capable of improving employee well-being and staff satisfaction.

Female leadership is one such area that plays a critical role and is a strategic prerequisite for business success in today’s hypercompetitive environment. For example, Mary T. Barra (CEO of General Motors), Indra Nooyi (CEO of PepsiCo) and Ginni Rometty (CEO of IBM) have been posited as female leaders as they converted many brilliant people to follow them.

In search of the perfect, well-planned strategy, CEOs delay execution and arrive at the finish line (if there ever is one) with a less than relevant performance at best.
