Why are women better leaders? According to some scholars, women tend to surpass men in consensus-building and certain other skills associated with leadership. Women leaders are more likely to mentor and coach others to create a strong team atmosphere. They encourage genuine collaboration and embrace the empowerment of others. They are passionate about building trust and lasting relationships. Women leaders believe in the power of helping other women.
"There is a special place in hell for women who don't help other women." Madeleine Albright
So, what makes them better leaders? Here are 3 obvious reasons why women make better leaders:
Women are persuasive
“Women leaders are more assertive and persuasive, have a stronger need to get things done and are more willing to take risks than male leaders,” according to a recent study conducted by Caliper, a Princeton-based management consulting firm.
Women possess strong people skills, enabling them to analyze information more accurately, thus, enhancing their persuasive abilities. Unfair advantages of male to female entrepreneurs in the marketplace, force women to work twice as hard to be competitive and so they are natural risk takers.
Women are risk takers
Women leaders are resistant to a lot of heavy and unnecessary red tape and will engage in risk taking to come up with innovative solutions to get the job done, efficiently!
A survey by the Simmons School of Management in Boston stated that “women business leaders don't shy from taking risks, but partake in opportunities considered to be "high-risk" on a regular basis.” In addition, the survey revealed that “though businesswomen embrace risk, they are largely viewed by the business world and mass media as being risk-averse.”
Women are problem solvers
When faced with an issue, women prefer to hear the facts, to lay it all on the table; this allows them to analyze the issues to make the most informed decision. Here are 4 quick tips to better problem solving:
1. Define the problem: ask who, what, when, where and why?
2. Analyze the cause: once identified, solicit help from people who are directly affected and those who can assist you in resolving the problem(s).
3. Identify and assess alternatives: Ask for suggestions from everyone and then investigate your alternative(s).
4. Implement the solution: after the alternatives are identified and the best possible solutions have been decided, start moving toward implementation. Choose key people to play a role in working towards carrying out the action steps and goals that are in place. Make sure there is a plan to handle any unforeseen problems that may arise.
In closing, what makes a woman a good leader may vary by person? I see a leader as one who empowers, embraces and motivates others to achieve success on their own terms. She is unselfish and always thinking of ways to uplift and help others and ultimately, not wanting anything in return. How do you define a good leader?

Let me know if you have any addiouatnal questions.. I would be happy to answer them.
She said to me, “I could listen to you all day… I love your videos and I WISH I could listen to you while I’m driving my car (lol).”
It’s been a while since I updated my podcast, “Work and Web Women” and I’ve never really wanted to do my own Blog Talk Radio Show BUT I always want to make sure that I’m helping you with your online business. That being said, I really took her words to heart and decided to dust off the old microphone (lol) and get to work. After many hours of what could only be described as “me talking and laughing to myself in a room” I created SistaSense Talks; a series of audio sessions, in which I tell you exactly how I run my business, get customers, market online, and build my brand in the process.
Another sister said, “I understand that I need to use a blog and social media to market my business online, but it was not until we talked that I finally understood why I needed to be on these spaces.”
You already get that building a website, starting a blog, and being on Facebook can help your business, but as this sista points out, if you DON’T get the why, how, and what you need to do with the web, then you are pretty much walking blind. In case you didn’t know, my blog is called SistaSense because I’m a Sista who learned how to make Sense of Making Money Online. Believe me when I say, you can waste a WHOLE LOT of time trying to pick up little marketing tips here and there or tell yourself that you can figure it out for yourself BUT in reality, listening to someone who has been through what you are going through is the best way to go.
Another sister said, “It was not until I joined your SistaSense Circle that I realized other women were going through the same issues that I was going through.”
Believe it or not, God didn’t create technology so everybody could get it but you (lol). Most folks, (myself included) sometimes feel like “this is just confusing me”, but it’s not. While I love to write eBooks for you, I realize that you might just need a little more than words to help you figure this stuff out. Perhaps right this minute, you need to hear my voice and feel like I’m holding your hand, walking you through the process of figuring out where your online business is to today vs. where it could be in the future.

Enjoy and blessed be!!!!!
There is a lot of marketing noise out there, making it a challenge to effectively reach your target audience. Your current and potential customers are inundated by e-mails, voicemails, podcasts, blogs, TV ads, radio ads, print ads and now mobile messages. So, how do you stand out? How do you make yourself, your organization, or your services memorable?
If you want to capture attention and build customer loyalty, consider adding greeting cards mail campaigns to your marketing mix.
We all like receiving a card in the mail. Greeting cards by designed get the attention of the recipient. They stand out from the regular envelopes because of their size. They serve as the 'pleasant' surprise and make a statement that you took the time to send them. While others are relying on email or bulk mail, you can send a warmer and more personal message to your audience. By adding a greeting card you can dramatically improve your chances of it being opened and read, therefore your direct mail response rates will be significantly higher. Higher responses mean higher return on investment.
Use greeting card campaigns to:
Be Memorable During Holidays & Special Occasions – Isn’t it fun to receive a hand addressed birthday card in the mail? Special occasions are an ideal time to connect with your audience. If you keep track of your customers’ birthdays or anniversaries, consider sending them a greeting. In addition to personal occasions, holidays such as Thanksgiving, Christmas, Valentine’s Day and Fourth of July are ideal times to send hand addressed greetings. It is often the personal touches that separate you from your competitors. People like to know that they are more than just another name in your customer database.
Send a Sincere Thank You - Many of us remember our parents forcing a pen and card into our hands and demanding that we send handwritten Thank You cards to relatives after receiving a gift. Why? Because it was (and still is) the proper and polite thing to do. Why should the rules be any different in business? When your customers give you the gift of their business or time, they deserve a handwritten Thank You in return. One of the most effective ways to encourage loyalty from your customers (and repeat business) is to say “Thank You.” A hand addressed Thank You card demonstrates that you care about your customers.
Add a Punch to Your Messages – You can spend weeks trying to write the perfect letter for your audience. But your efforts will go to waste if your call-to-action goes unnoticed. Not only does your letter need to be well written, but most of all, it needs to be read. Sending that marketing message in a greeting card can be a effective way to ensure your business stands out amongst other.
The next time you want to effectively reach your customers, consider a greeting card campaign. A more personal approach that can dramatically improve the success of your marketing efforts.
A great, innovative service called Send Out Cards can help you createcustom cards, set up campaigns and assist you in remembering your clients important occasions, but more importantly will help you establish and maintain that all important customer relationship.
For more information go to http://www.sendoutcards.com/80793 - select option #2 and send a free card. Then watch the other videos to discover what SendOutCards can do for you.
As always, stay blessed.

Our goals can only be reached through a vehicle of a plan, in which we must
fervently believe, and upon which we must vigorously act.
There is no other route to success.
~Stephen A. Brennan~
Do you have goals for your life and business?
I'm sure you do. Are you achieving any of your goals?
Even when you've set a "good" goal - you can run into some
challenges along the way... namely, motivation. Without motivation,
even the most ambitious person will get sidetracked. Here are the strategies that
will keep you on track to achieving your goals:
Write it down
It's one thing to set a goal and yet another to write it down.
You're making a step towards committing to your goal when
you write it down. I know it seems obvious, however, you'd be
surprised at how many individuals
don't complete this step.
Determine what achieving this goal will do for you
Give life to your goals. Write down what it will mean or what it
will do for you to achieve this goal. Visualize it and write it down.
Place yourself in the moment. This is also a key to manifesting
your goals.
Focus on success.
Being overcome by negative thoughts or "what if" scenarios can spell
disaster, even death, to your goals. When you start out by finding a
million ways why your plans won't work, your energy is getting diverted
to dealing with failure that hasn't even happened!
Instead of funneling your time and resources into negative thoughts and
processes, make the decision that you're not going to entertain any
ideas of failure. If it happens, it happens. You don't have to spend
your precious resources worrying about it now.
"What you focus on expands." ~ Author unknown
Chart your progress.
A great motivation is to create a visual graphic to represent your
progress towards your goal. Think of those thermometers that elementary
schools place outside on a busy road, measuring how close they are to
achieving their fund-raising goal for the new community pool or
library. A similar, physical chart that you can update with progress
will do wonders to keep your attention focused.
When you're doing this step, think outside the box. If you're trying to
spend more time at the gym, why not post a map of the US on your wall,
and draw an inch from one coast to the other for each hour you spend on
the treadmill? Visual reminders are fun ways to keep your goals in the
forefront of your mind.
Don't be afraid to ask for help or turn to an expert for advice.
Some individuals feel guilty about asking for help or admitting that they
need help. Or you may think that you need to do everything on your own.
Nothing could be further from the truth! Alcoholics Anonymous has
sponsors, Michael Phelps has a coach, and Jack Welch had an advisory
board. No one has to be alone in their goal-setting efforts. Trying to
eat healthier? Nutritionists will help you fine-tune your diet. Working
out to get fit? Trainers will help you find the most effective
exercises to achieve your physical goals. Trying to get clear on your
vision, goals and stay focused or maybe even get unstuck? Coaches such
as
myself can assist you in this area.
There are business mentors and coaches who can help you figure out social
media, launch a new information product, create action plans, stay
focused, streamline your finances etc.. You can also find tons of
books, videos, and websites to help you reach your goal, no matter what
your goal happens to be. Don't go it alone. You also need an
accountability partner. Many times this is the missing piece.
Need more support in setting and/or achieving your goals? I invite you to
contact me for a complimentary life and business breakthrough strategy
session. Where I'll help you create a vision of where you'd like to go,
uncover some of the things that may be holding you back
and more. You'll leave our session re-energized, empowered and more focused.
Send an email to info@RobinTramble.com put "Life and Business
Breakthrough strategy session" in the subject area.
Someone will contact you to set up your session with me.
