Could language be a reason why women are under-represented at
senior level in the business world? The Language of Female
Leadership investigates how female leaders actually use language to
achieve their business and relational goals. The author proposes
that the language of women leaders is shaped by the type of
corporation they work for. Based on the latest research, three
types of 'gendered corporation' appear to affect the way women
interact with colleagues: the male-dominated, the gender-divided
and the gender-multiple. This book shows that senior women have to
carry out extra 'linguistic work' to make their mark in the
boardroom. In male-dominated and gender-divided corporations, women
must develop an extraordinary linguistic expertise just to survive.
In gender-multiple corporations, this linguistic expertise helps
them to be highly regarded and effective leaders.
