Abstract:
Meta-analytic studies have found that men and women are different in areas such as how they approach
morality, forgiveness and leadership. Similarly, meta-analyses have found that increased education is
related to increased self-esteem, job attitudes and social capital. In this study, 577 working adults from
the state of Texas completed the Project Globe Leadership Questionnaire. This study found that both
gender and education were related to the intensity with which participants believed particular leadership
characteristics contributed to and inhibited outstanding leadership. Formal education was related to
stronger ratings of the importance of leadership behaviors.
