ABOUT THE BOOK:- “Basic education can also help women access their social and legal rights, and enable them to participate in management. However, having women in leadership and decision making roles does not automatically translate to real authority, influence or systemic change. Further education and professional training are typically required for women to be considered credible, influential, high level leaders and decision-makers. The research focusing on the debate between male and female effectiveness should be redirected since it seems quit e clear that questions regarding leader effectiveness and leader emergence are better linked to the individual rather than to an individual's sex or even gender role.” ABOUT THE AUTHOR:- Siddhartha Sarkar (b.1973), PhD (Economics), PDF (The Netherlands and Hungary), CAF (London, UK) is serving as the Principal and Executive Head at A.

ABOUT THE BOOK:- “A substantial amount of literature suggests that women differ from men in various financial matters. When it comes to dealing with money and finance, women are on average still more inexperienced compared to men. Since they earn less in most cases and live longer, they are more reluctant to take losses and eager to save costs. Women tend to integrate their values into their financial plan, a fact that makes socially responsible investments more attractive to them.” ABOUT THE AUTHOR:- Siddhartha Sarkar (b.1973), PhD (Economics), PDF (The Netherlands and Hungary), CAF (London, UK) is serving as the Principal and Executive Head at A.
