Do women make better leaders?



When you think of a leader, does a picture in your mind show a female or a male? Are there more than women at your workplace then men or vice versa?
A leader is someone who takes the initiative and "makes it happen" for the team. Women have definitely established a path of greatness and continue by proving our abilities or being a leader. 

Women stay strong as men and hold on to the core values of life. Has there ever been a time that as a women you have felt less than a women because of a man you worked with or the general example you see from men? I always think to myself "to be above the rest", but at times I feel as though I must better than any man. As women in leadership wse must continue to empower each other and help each other in every way.
