Many people know about the anatomical and physiological differences between the sexes. And the fact that men and women differ significantly in psychology and behavior is less well known. This is a natural phenomenon due to the different content of hormones in the body. So there are things that men do better and women do better. No wonder they say that men are better at strategy, and women are better at tactics.
Why men are the best strategists
The term "strategy" in a broad sense, which does not cover only the military field of application, means the ability to consider any problem (including a very complex, time-consuming one) in its entirety, in its entirety and interrelation with many accompanying circumstances. And often not only at this particular moment, but also for the future. A person with strategic thinking must calculate the consequences of his actions, the likelihood of various scenarios of events. A strategic person knows how to assess risks, knows how to make them less significant for the common cause. This skill is useful to all people, but it is especially necessary for top-level leaders, from heads of large companies to heads of state.
Mainly, this ability is inherent in the stronger sex. In most cases, a man is better able to formulate a general problem and outline specific ways to solve it. At the same time, as a rule, he is not distracted by minor details, due to the peculiarities of his thinking and less, in comparison with women, emotionality. Finally, men are generally less careful than women, so they are more likely to take risks - for example, introducing some new direction in the activities of their companies.
Why women are called the best tacticians
Women are assigned the role of continuers of the clan, and at the same time they are physically weaker than men. Therefore, a woman, as a rule, is instinctively more cautious, not inclined to take risks. Because of this, she, being the head of the company, often refuses promising new directions, preferring to do with what is already available and has proven its reliability. But on the other hand, the weaker sex, as a rule, is very attentive to details, trifles. In addition, some women are more assiduous and patient than men. Therefore, they often make excellent performers. A woman worse than a man can “cover” the whole problem as a whole, especially if a perspective is also required, but she can solve a particular stage of this problem brilliantly, sometimes even better than a man.
In addition, due to the peculiarities of the structure of the nervous system, women are able to do several things at the same time, giving them the same attention. For men, this is almost impossible.
