Introduction Effective and efficient leadership has a significant role in the success or failure of any organization. There are some qualities that make a person a good leader. The number of women who are reaching top positions in the management of an organization is very less, though nowadays there is some change in this fact and so many women are holding top leadership and managerial position. Also there now there is change in belief that, women cannot come to a leadership position. It can be seen that one of the main reason why women did not come to the top positions of an organization is male domination. Discrimination in the work pace is common everywhere in the world. Females are the most victims of discrimination. Does gender matter in leadership? This is one of the most debated question issues in the leadership and management field.

Therefore giving women equal treatment on par with men fails to create fairness. Organizations are reluctant to promote married women with children to higher managerial and leadership positions because of their household responsibilities and are not able to work for longer periods.
