Who can you trust more to handle your business, man or woman?

[livingfree]

It doesn't depend on gender for me as well. It depends on the portfolio of the person and the achievements that he/she had done already.

There is a gender equality nowadays and we are both preferring to have no preference in gender if it's about top management.

What we do is do some screening based on the application that they're sending. Some series of interviews and logical exams will do the rest.

Having HR department is helpful even if it's a small company. But as a startup, you surely want to see their portfolio and what they've been through asking them what aspires them to work for you and so on.

* If you intend to start your business or you already do and are looking for the best candidate to fill the top management position, would you trust a man or a woman to handle the affairs of the business?

I'm currently working corporately and as I want to said, that gender is not the factor here that who is good or not, who is better or not etc. I'd say I will based on the achivement, personality and overall character of that person, because while in corporate I realized that no matter what gender there is there are situations that man are more capable than woman and same goes as sometimes woman are more capable than man, so in summary the trust to handle your buesiness doesn't jave relation to what gender there is, you should focus on the characteristics and capability sides, and of course it may vary depends on the nature of business, for example construction company will you let the workers to be woman? Possible but as we know more man will applied to it, maybe those engineers there maybe an instances that woman can become more better than man engineers right?

* What reasons would you suggest are right, for picking and trusting a particular gender to handle a top management position of your business?

I don't choose any of the gender, maybe the choice will depends on the situation or nature of business, as I said above will you let woman become the workers in construction? You can but of course there are more man will applied, but in engineer side you can choose between man and woman depends on how good they will be, as an example again, I'm wokrking in a bank company and my nature of work is programming, notice that what gender there is there are higher ups that is both man and woman, it implies that no matter what gender you are you can be higher to anyone depends on your capability and skills.

I don’t think its gender matters well on the choice of manager. Based on my experience, it greatly depends on your overall performance and capabilities to perform the position. Otherwise, you will not be qualified for such managerial position if you have less experience on managing a business. Also, attitude matters most when you are managing a business. If you are not patient and resilient, you will never be an asset to that business.

[sekalitas]

Am sure many arguments have ensued from the disparity in management that both gender, the man and the woman, can bring to the table as regards managing a business to scale heights of progress.
While a man is preferred for some, in order cases, the women are more favorite to handle top management positions due to their multitasking ability or dedication to vision of the company that's unwavering.

Let's discuss!

I believe the best candidate for a top management position should be selected based on their qualifications, experience, and alignment with the business's goals. The key qualities I'd look for in a top manager are strategic thinking, effective communication, problem-solving acumen, and a genuine passion for the business's mission. These qualities can be found in individuals of any gender.

Leadership is an individual quality that is not associated with gender, and if women or men have the ability, are hard workers and have a lot of experience to become leaders, why not.
And regarding leadership skills and qualities cannot be determined by gender because these skills and qualities can be found in everyone without influencing men or women to be the right leaders,
and also effective. That the most effective leaders are those who have the ability, skills, experience, hard work, authority and quality.

[btc78]

The answer is none.

Why would you base off of someone’s gender? The world is evolving and stereotypes are not as prevalent as they once were. Stereotypes do not necessarily reflect the reality anymore. I would base off of someone’s credibility, expertise and experience to decide and not on what they identify as.

I agree with what you said, regardless of gender, anyone who can do their job well and can achieve business goals is worthy of occupying the highest position. In essence, as we all know, to achieve goals, men and women must be involved, and to appoint management leaders, of course everything also depends on the situation and conditions. This means adapting to demands and needs, so that the managed business can run smoothly in the future.

There's no gender to that I believe, because what the man brings to the table, the woman could also bring that fair and square. We are not in the 19th century. Most of time time, the one's who are favored to handle any business model is the person who actually posses the traits and qualifications including experience and expertise on the field. So, that means it could either be both man and woman.
There is really no difference though or a deciding factor why is a man can successfully handle a business compared to a woman or the other way around.
Ok, here's to answer those couple of scenario/questions you have.
1. I will not put my trust base on gender, because that doesn't really make any sense. I can even hire someone from the LGBT community.
2. I don't have any reason why I pick someone to fill out the role base on gender, because again that doesn't make any sense.

[Volimack]

For the top management there is nothing to say about the gender difference that we will do. If men are more skilled then same is the case for men and women. Here will determine who is worthy. There comes a point where every business owner has to figure out how to turn a small business into a big business big successful businesses don't just materialize out of thin air. They require unwavering dedication commitment and focus. Only then can a business realize its true potential.

[Fuso.hp]

First we need to find a man we trust. There is no problem in a person being a boy or a girl or a person of the third gender. If we put the wrong person in charge of an important part of our business, we will never grow in that business. One should always give priority to one's own people in finding trustworthy people. You may have many close friends or may be treating you very well and loyally just to get your business, so you should not trust these people easily. If there is such a worthy and trustworthy person with whom one has been living since childhood and in one's acquaintance, I think that responsibility should be given from one's acquaintance. Because your people will think several times before harming you but then people will not think even once before harming you they will harm you in a moment.

[Hewlet]

Their had not been a verified theory that suggests that women are better managers or that men are better off than the women. If you put in the right woman in the position of managing your business, she will do exceptionally well just like the male counterpart.

The world has evolved past the stage where we have to limit certain gender to a particular thing and deprive others of such things, asing as it involves mental work, then their is no disparity between a man and a woman. It use to be a factor to be considered in the past when work where mostly done by physical exertions of energy and women weren't allowed to do some hard jobs because it obviously required the physical strength but that's not what is obtainable in today's digital age when most of the jobs requires critical thinking and core problem solving skills that comes with little or no physical activity. Good Management is a functional of personality and never ge der related.

[Kakmakr]

You cannot simply take a brush and paint all women "red" and all "Men" blue, because we are all individuals and we do not have the same education or background.

If you want to make a decision based on gender, then you have to look at things like hormones..  where testosterone makes Men more aggresive and dominating and women can be influenced by their menstual cycle, which affects their mood. (But not all men and women have the same reaction to these hormones and some people use this to their advantage.)

[Scarlett_23]

I think gender can never matter in running any organization.  In running an organization the things I would emphasize are the skills, intelligence and punctuality of the individual and at the same time the integrity of the individual.  There are many platforms where women are ahead of men and in some organizations women are ahead of men.  It all depends on the person.  Girls are efficiently running many big organizations and even at the field level they are the symbol of equal partnership.  Again we can see women's spontaneous participation in state management for example Angela Merkel who is Germany's first female councillor.  Not to be left out is Therasa Mey, who is the second queen of England.  Alyssa Carson  has signed a contract to be the first man on Mars, making the contribution of women in the sky and on the ground unforgettable.

* If you intend to start your business or you already do and are looking for the best candidate to fill the top management position, would you trust a man or a woman to handle the affairs of the business?

When choosing a candidate to run a business, I was primarily guided by professional skills and abilities, and not by gender.

* What reasons would you suggest are right, for picking and trusting a particular gender to handle a top management position of your business?

These are banal reasons: education, experience, professional ability to perform the assigned work.

Need to hire a specialist with appropriate qualifications, not a man or a woman. I think choosing based on gender is stupid.

[jrrsparkles]

It can be either a man on woman as long as the candidate approaches for the job has the qualities that is needed for the job. Usually the one who manages will not be appointed straight away, it will be someone who is in the structure for years and feel that they are capable of managing the provided job.

[Patrol69]

A lot depends on the type of business I am doing, whether I prefer a boy or a girl for that business. If I have a super shop or a store that has special girls stuff, I will definitely prefer girls for this type of work. If there is a super shop or a big store of women's cosmetics, I will appoint my wife as the manager and as other staff I will appoint some female friends or cousins that I know so that they consider my organization as their own and work with many responsibilities. However, it is not that boys will not get job opportunity in my organization, definitely boys will get job opportunity, but I will definitely give importance to boys in the place where boys will be more useful.

[EarnOnVictor]

While a man is preferred for some, in order cases, the women are more favorite to handle top management positions due to their multitasking ability or dedication to vision of the company that's unwavering.

And men cannot multitask? Well, you are not getting the point. Any establishment has its vision and goals and the labour (man or woman) and plans to actualise the two. Now, what you asked depends on the nature of the job, because there are some jobs that it is better fitting for women than men, and vice versa. According to the plans of the establishment, they may prefer either of the two genders for the same job that other establishments are indifferent about because, at times, it is beyond what we see or think, they might have their ulterior motives which could be best suited for women or men. And when the job is masculinist in nature, it would obviously be given to men in most cases, unless women believed to be fitting for it are discovered and assigned to it. The same goes for the opposite.

Above all, you will hardly see the job nature where men and women can't fit in, and you will see enough that both men and women are practically heading. That is in the natural sense, but in the peculiar/preferential sense, it depends on the preference of the establishment and not the fact you brought out that one is more tasking, no, men are even better in all ramifications than women, in my opinion, even though some women are worthy rival to men.

As I said above, it depends on the nature of the job and my plans to achieve my goal of establishing it. If at all, I will not discriminate for any reason so long as the two genders are best fitting for the job. I will only do the interview and employ the most qualified hand. However, if there is a better need for a particular gender due to the nature of the job, obviously, I will go for either of the two for the best productivity.

[Barikui1]

I actually don't really sees it as something necessary to be considered before putting someone in charge of your business, because I believe that everyone is unique in their own way, what is really important to me is not the gender, but how skill that person is, that is what am more concerned about, and besides we are in the 21 century for Christ sake, so giving someone job base on gender is totally wrong, it should be done on merit and qualification, though their some type of businesses that requires to choose a particular gender, something like truck drivers, it's rare to see any woman doing it, and it's even rare to see men doing care giving job, because men don't have the patience needed to do it.

To be honest, with such approach to business, you will go bankrupt with 100% probability. You must choose not which gender is more suitable to work in the shop, but which will sell more. For example in a store where "special girls stuff" is traded, why do you think women would sell more? Because women understands more about the shops assortment? That can be trained and learned. But if a man (as a sales persons) would, for example, make a compliment to a buyer, the chance that buyer would make a purchase is higher.

A professional, a more experienced person will handle business better, but not a man or a woman. This looks similar to a having a discussion why women earn less than men for the same job. Those who think this is true, then explain why employers dont hire women only, because they will do the same job for a lower payment.

[slapper]

Seriously? We're still having this conversation in this day and age? Look, the question isn't about trusting a man or a woman to handle your business; it's about trusting the right person. Gender doesn't run businesses; brains, grit, and vision do. You're hung up on whether a man's assertiveness or a woman's multitasking is the secret sauce to skyrocketing your business. Guess what? It's neither

It's about finding someone with the guts to make tough calls, the brainpower to navigate complex challenges, and the heart to lead with passion. You mention multitasking and dedication? These are human traits, not gender-specific superpowers. The real question should be: Does this person get it? Can they drive, inovate, and inspire regardess of what's between their legs?

Choosing a leader based on gender is like choosing a car based on color. Sure, it might look good, but does it have what it takes under the hood? Focus on competence, integrity, and alignment with your vision. Those are your non-negotiables. Gender? That's just an outdated checkbox that has no place in today's business equation
