Leadership scores for both male and female managers

Reference no: EM13808715

The CEO of your company has asked you, the human resource manager, to conduct a study to determine whether or not male managers and female managers perceive leadership styles differently and, if differences are found, to develop a training program that will benefit gender differences in leadership. To this end you selected, randomly, 10 male managers and 10 female managers to participate in your study. To each manager a leadership style survey questionnaire was administered. The questionnaire chosen was the Blake & Mouton Managerial Grid as it assesses leadership behavior. The numeric raw data results of the 18 question study are as follows:
