Just as a View of Gender Being Flexible Has Emerged

question 2

Multiple Choice

Just as a view of gender being flexible has emerged in sociology, the evolution of ideas around gender alongside leadership constructs has led to the idea that leadership is more complex than a simple 'either/or' dichotomy but acts on a sliding scale that enables individuals to choose an approach depending on the demands facing them at the time. How is the idea of androgyny presented in leadership terms?

• A) The move to a more balanced set of behaviours, in terms of agentic and communal, may assist males trying to escape the dilemma posed by role incongruity.
• B) The move to a less flexible approach towards what society understands or considers 'good' leadership to be, lies in the changing concept about male skills demanded in a complex world.
• C) It would seem that a swing towards a more female interpretation
• Of the leadership role is underway, and yet this may prove to be as counter-productive.
• D) That men and women exhibit both agentic traits associated with masculine leadership and communal behaviour associated with females.
