So we know that women are making less than men (they remind us of it every chance they get). However, following a recent study by two professors at the University of Florida, it's been determined that women aren't necessarily making less because of their gender, but more because of the way in which they handle their jobs and positions. The study found that men who took a more old-school, traditional approach to their jobs earned $11,930 more money annually than men who did the same job in an egalitarian way. And women who did their jobs more traditionally (like men) made $1,052 more than women who instead preferred to be more egalitarian in their work habits.
We've seen women who do business like men and succeed, including the likes of Hillary Clinton and Condoleezza Rice. However, female managers often still opt to do their jobs in a "nicer," more egalitarian way. Does this work?
