Why you should attendGender obviously colors behavior, perception,
and just about everything else. With the rapid development of the
society, women are taking more and more responsibilities both in
business and in the whole society. Women are becoming more highly
demanding and have high expectation for themselves. Especially the
women in management face many specific different challenges, compared
with men managers, women outperform men at communications and interpersonal
skills, as well in the leadership, women are more willing to explore
compromise and to solicit other people¡¯s opinions, while women are
demonstrating higher levels of traditional ¡°hard¡± or ¡°male¡± skills

are still very few women running fortune 500 companies and, in the
corporate VP ranks, they are roughly three men to every woman, which
