Question

1. Kouzes and Posner's study found that honesty was a particularly important trait in order for a leader to be credible. 
2. According to a study, nearly twice as many men as women aspire to be CEO. 
3. Studies show that women in the workplace are better than men at teamwork and partnering. 
4. A recent study shows that male executives are better than female executives at producing high-quality work. 

Answer 1

1. TRUE
During the 1980s, James Kouzes and Barry Posner researched what personal traits people looked for and admired in their superiors. The respondents suggested that a credible leader should have four traits. He or she should be (1) honest, (2) forward looking, (3) inspiring, and (4) competent. These four traits, researchers concluded, constitute a leader's credibility, and the research suggests people want their leaders to be credible and to have a sense of direction.
2. FALSE
A study by a New York research firm found that 55% of women and 57% of men aspire to be CEO, challenging the notion that more women aren't at the top because they don't want to be there.
3. TRUE
Women have been found to be better at teamwork and partnering, being more collaborative, seeking less personal glory, being motivated less by self-interest than in what they can do for the company, being more stable, and being less turf conscious.
4. FALSE
According to studies, women were found to be better at producing quality work, recognizing trends, and generating new ideas and acting on them.
