"...Aileen Gorman, executive director of The Commonwealth Institute, notes, “Women CEOs are succeeding because they first and foremost value strong relationships with customers and employees. Their leadership focus engenders loyalty and productivity, and results in long-term business success.
“Additionally, the CEOs we studied value learning and continue to reach out to mentors and boards of advisors to further their knowledge. Their commitment to building their companies for the long-term and furthering their own expertise has been integral to their business growth.”
