SECTION II

THOUGHTS ON GENDER DIFFERENCES
ATTRIBUTES
WEB THINKING

Key Points:

Women excel at verbal fluency; men at spatial aptitudes.
Men excel at step thinking; women at web thinking and multitasking.
Genes, hormones and brain architecture influence gender differences.
Men and women need each other to get ahead.

Questions:

What is the impact of web thinking in the newsroom?
What is the impact of step thinking?
How can these thinking processes be misunderstood? (Women might be perceived as scatter-brained, men as rigid.)
How can these thinking processes work for us rather than against us?
