MGMT 312 American Public University System Gender Leadership Discussion

In need of a 250 words Initial Discussion Forum post. MGMT312 Leadership and Motivation Topic: Gender Leadership/Culture Leadership

For this discussion, please choose one the following two discussions for this week:

If you are a woman:

– do you feel that you have been treated differently in your workplace because you are a woman?

– what have you done to overcome any biases that have interfered with your career based on gender?

– if you are interviewing for a job where three other candidates are men and you are the only woman, what, if anything, do you need to do to stand out among the other candidates?

OR

As a female supervisor in a group of 15 employees and half of them are men, would you do anything differently to motivate the male employees and the female employees?
