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?
