Leaders should be viewed less in terms of heroic command than as encouraging participation throughout an organization, group, country, or network. Questions of appropriate style – when to use hard and soft skills – are equally relevant for men and women, and should not be clouded by traditional gender stereotypes.
领袖应该更多地在组织、团队、国家或网络中承担鼓励参与的角色，更少地扮演英雄式的主宰者。什么才是合适的风格——什么时候硬，什么时候软——对男性和女性同样重要，我们不应该被传统的性别顽固旧观念蒙蔽了双眼。在某些情形中，男性需要表现得“像个娘们”，而女性在某些情形中需要表现得“像个爷们”。
