Question:

During the course of your employment you may have experienced working for both a male and female supervisor. Discuss from your personal point of view the advantages/disadvantages and like/dislike of working for each gender. Use real life experiences if applicable.

I have worked under both male and female supervisors. Right off the bat I might want to say the advantages of working under a female supervisor. They appreciate and relate to the path that, as a woman, you have distinctive obligations that men don't. Females are more open than male chiefs, as females are perceived as being more thoughtful and better at interchanges. Females may be more open to overseeing other ladies than with men, even in troublesome conditions, as there is no sexual orientation hole and a diminished risk of miscommunication. On the opposite side, the cons of working with female chiefs is that ,Women supervisors can here and there be envious and may include in slandering after some time. Some of the time, it will be difficult to manage female chiefs when they are worried or disappointed. Obviously, it will be also difficult to work with a male chief under comparable conditions. Furthermore, going to the focal points working under a male chief, male contemplations and choices are not all that falter and they stand firm on their choices. They are constantly prepared to confront dangers which encourages them in demonstrating their abilities and accomplishing the coveted undertaking results. They have a tendency to be keen and exceedingly receptive if there should arise an occurrence of crisis issues at work. The cons of working with male's administrator according to my encounters is that, they have a tendency to anticipate that individuals will work late in the evenings independent of asset concerns. They some of the time overwhelm female assets which prompts sexual orientation segregation and modesty.  Experience of working under a male or female supervisor dependably penetrates down to the person with whom your work, now and again it leaves a constructive note and here and there it leaves a pessimistic note.

People work one next to the other, handling a similar business issues, sitting through similar gatherings and strolling the equivalent passages.

Yet, another examination on working ladies proposes that the shared view closes there. People encounter altogether different work environments, ones in which the chances for progression fluctuate broadly and corporate professions come in two flavors: his and hers. Information demonstrates that men win more advancement, all the more difficult assignments and more access to top pioneers than ladies do. Men are more probable than ladies to feel certain they are on the way to an official job, and feel all the more emphatically that their boss prizes justify.

Ladies, in the interim, see a more extreme trek to the best. Not as much as half feel that advancements are granted reasonably or that the best open doors go to the most-meriting workers. A critical offer of ladies say that sexual orientation has been a factor in missed raises and advancements. Significantly more trust that their sexual orientation will make it harder for them to progress later on—an opinion most unequivocally felt by ladies at senior levels.

These are the determinations of a noteworthy new investigation of working ladies directed by LeanIn.Org and McKinsey and Co. In one of the biggest investigations to date on this subject, analysts amid the principal half of this current year accumulated information on advancements, weakening and profession results at 132 worldwide organizations, and they studied 34,000 people at those organizations on their encounters at work.

The uniqueness starts at passage level, where men are 30% more probable than ladies to be elevated to administration jobs. It proceeds all through professions, as men climb the stepping stool in bigger numbers and make up the lot of outside contracts. In spite of the fact that their numbers are developing gradually, ladies hold not as much as a fourth of senior administration positions and short of what one-fifth of C-suite jobs.

What types of differences exist between men and women in negotiation?

Negotiation is done across different organizations and is a critical skill required for both men and women used in innumerable situations. Men and women approach issues in their own unique way and hence, gender plays an important role in the outcome of negotiations. In organizations, managers spend a lot of their time negotiating and hence, this skill must be developed or built if they are keen to move up the levels in an organization. It is thus important for one to know how gender can impact the result of a negotiation. Men and women are different at negotiating and hence, must act accordingly to have an outcome in their favor.

Theoretical perspectives propose that men receive better negotiation outcomes due to perceptional, behavioural, and contextual gender differences (Auce, 1999). There are views that women are less effective negotiators than men. Due to this stereotyping, there are perceptions that women are not good at negotiation, and hence the so-called decision makers in an organization, do not give good opportunities to women which in turn confirms the generic expectation. Various roles in buying services and selling services are roles where there is a lot of negotiation. Due to the stereotyping, certain key roles may not even be offered to women.

Men prefer to discuss facts directly during negotiations whereas women tend to ask questions and present facts indirectly. By asking more open questions, women can obtain more information about the topic of discussion. Men simply see making conversation as means to swap information and in contrast women establish connections with others by having conversations. 

Many times, women tend to show more empathy and can be good at viewing the other point of view in a negotiation. Men on the other hand can be more aggressive than women. However, each of these points have their own place while negotiating. Men and women have different body language, and this can also play an important role during negotiations. Men usually spread their arms over the table or chair. Maintaining constant eye contact and speaking in a slightly raised tone can be used to establish command in a negotiation. Having good listening skills is also critical to a negotiation.

Question:

What types of differences exist between men and women in negotiation?

Gender differences in negotiation is very common in management and the question is always there that whether a man or women work in similar way or different when they were acting as a leader. To get the answer its important to review the existing different relationships when the group of people agrees on relationships, roles and division of labor, on how the leadership is influencing the whole group. The Gender stereotype not only influence the behavior but also influence which leadership positions of man and women accepts and occupy in an organization. (Gaytan, 2014)

Negotiation is one of the important forms of coordination in any organization and the study of gender in negotiation is also important to understand the organizational processes because gender is an important source of variety at work and gender inequalities in any organizations can be broken down or constructed depending on the requirement. (Bowles & Flynn, 2010)

Men and women approach in negotiation are with theoretical perspectives, empirical findings and gender differences in negotiations which involves theoretical perspective in which the study shows that women know more about the complete relationship between the negotiating parties and they will not focus on the content of the issue, but they will perceive the negotiation. (Kolb and Coolidge, 1991)

Problem solving skills of male and female negotiators differs in many ways like in problem solving women always engage herself and listen to the issues properly and contribute her efforts to solve the problem, whereas men tries to convince the other party that his points of discussion are correct and try to win points in the discussion instead of focusing on the solution.

Exchange tactics and aggressive tactics, studies show that men and women are treated differently during salary negotiations instead of looking for the skills and experiences they look for the gender and women offered more compare to men but its opposite in case of aggressive tactics females are less likely to be hired compared to men when they bargained aggressively. (Lewicki, Roy. J; Saunders, David M; Barry, Bruce, 2015)
