Women seek personal fulfillment from their jobs and are often distracted from winning. Adopting a more aggressive approach will get women to the goal faster. Men and women even perceive the word 'aggressive' differently, said Evans. To men, 'aggressive' is being bold, forceful, a winner. To women it's being hostile, mean and ruthless.
Men talk a lot about their successes.
Through sports, men learn how to lose at a young age and are more willing to take risks and speak out. Because women fear failure, they tend to keep their ideas and opinions to themselves. Women need to study their surroundings, improve their communication skills, conduct more research on an assigned project and then develop the confidence to speak out and take credit for their work. Women are always a mother, daughter, wife, or mistress to their male co-workers. Men tend to think of women colleagues in terms of one of these traditional female roles.
