Communication Differences Between Men And Women In The Workplace
Have you ever noticed the variations in the way men and women communicate ?It?s one of the mysteries of life why men and women, speaking the same language, have difficulty communicating with each other ? (Balanced Living, 1992). There has been a great deal of study and research in this area of communications. Such study prompted Dr. John Gray to write, ?Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus.? This book studies and helps the reader to understand differences in the way the genders communicate, and offers advice for interpreting the language spoken by the opposite sex.
When one considers that relationships take place outside the home, it is important to look at the ways men and women communicate differently in the workplace and how these communication issues impact their effectiveness in management and the way they are perceived by their supervisors and employees.
