I’ve followed several female CEOs over the years. Most of them failed, largely because they were both unqualified for the job and their boards didn’t back them up. In several cases, the board and the CEO seemed to be in conflict, or the board simply didn’t do anything. Those failures have created the impression that female CEOs are a bad bet. However, I believe the real problem is that boards haven’t been doing their jobs. I think women would make better CEOs than men if they were trained and supported as well.
All the brainwashing in the media now about women being so great and men so bad. Its all rubbish, women can be just as bad or evil as men. It all depends on the person. Of course when it comes to jobs like the police, fireman etc... these are not jobs women should even want to be doing
