The Female Chief Executive:An Analysis of Career Progress and Development Needs

Abstract
A study of US female chief executive officers (CEOs) identifies the women as more creative, better qualified, and appointed to the role of CEO at a younger age. Although female CEOs identify the importance of motivation, personal drive and people skills as key reasons for success, they equally emphasise organisation and administrative skills, while the male CEOs highlight working effectively in teams. Based on these results, recommendations concerning the development of the female CEO are offered.
