The emergence of the type E woman

Article Abstract:

'Type E' women executives are those who try to be Everything to Everyone. The Type E working woman feels insecure and strives to believe in her personal worth, as she meets the demands of home and workplace. The increased number of women managers has stimulated research on women's responses to job stress and how these are similar to responses by male counterparts. The 'Type A' pattern often identified in men includes aggressive, competitive, and restless behavior, which can reduce productivity and lead to health problems. Women do demonstrate the aggressiveness associated with Type A patterns, but tend to exhibit such behavior later in life than do men. Type A behavior in women is caused by conflicts between expected and actual female attributes and behavior. The Type E response represents a combination of Type A and non-Type A (also known as Type B) behavior.

Stress and the working woman

Article Abstract:

Women's increased workplace participation is associated with rising levels of stress both at home and at work. Working women demonstrate increased independence, purchasing power, and assertiveness, which alter domestic power balances and conflict with traditional role expectations. Sex role stereotypes can also constrain women at work. Qualities traditionally associated with women such as a 'people orientation' or a humane perspective can help equip women for certain management jobs. Job stress among female managers can be relieved by support from colleagues, increased hiring of women, assistance from mentors, and inclusion in social activities and networks.
