Since human beings come to existence in Earth, the men are always dominated the world. There were very few examples in the history that a Women dominated a country or a region. But when a woman ruled a country or a region, she always Ruled differently.
Studies show that women lead differently than men.They are more likely to be more collaborative, inclusive, team-oriented. All these characteristics are more effective in today's less hierarchical, fast-paced, innovation-driven world.
