Gender Differences in the Work Place: It's a brain wiring thing

Revelation 1

Women and men perceive emotions differently. As Feldhahn puts it, “For instance, if a woman is excitable or upset at work, men automatically believe she’s no longer thinking clearly.” However, Science comes to the rescue to dispel that notion, “The female brain”, Feldhahn learned, “is actually wired to be able to handle a high degree of emotion and still think clearly.” Male brains are not wired the same way. In fact, in order to think clearly, men have to shut down an emotion.
