Why companies need female managers

On average, women gather more data, consider the context, are intuitive, have a sympathising mind and think more long-term. Ms Fisher calls it "web thinking".

Men, on the other hand, are more focused, think linear, focus on rules and the short-term - "step thinking".

Update: In Norway, at least 40% of the non-executive directors in a large company have to be female, or the company is risking dissolution.
