【摘要】 随着社会的发展和传统观念的改变，越来越多的女性走上了高校的管理岗位，她们在高校健康稳定的发展中发挥着不可替代的重要作用。但现实情况和国内外学者的研究皆表明：虽然高校中女性管理者的数量不断增长，但女性管理者的地位与男性管理者相比，仍存在较大的差异。同时，女性管理者的管理风格与男性管理者的管理风格也各有千秋。造成这种差异的存在，除了无法改变的生理特点这一原因之外，还有更深刻的社会原因。本研究将高校的五位女性管理者作为研究对象，以费德勒权变模型为理论基础，运用文献分析法和访谈法，从决策、领导和沟通三个层面来对高校女性管理者的管理风格进行研究，希望人们更好地理解女性管理者的性别优势和管理风格，从而促进女性管理者在高校中的发展。研究发现，高校女性管理者自信上进、具有亲和力、善于沟通和理解他人、管理具有“柔性”和“弹性”，但同时也易于感情用事，办事缺乏果断。在制定决策时，她们细心谨慎，擅于倾听教职工意见并考虑教职工的工作能力情况，实行民主决策；在领导工作时，她们通过关注教职工的所思所想、理解和解决其难处来促进工作目标的实现；在沟通方面，她们善于并且乐于沟通，通过关心教职工工作和生活情况来拉近与教职工之间的心理距离。但女性的宽容与柔性也易使她们办事缺乏理性，易于感情用事，面对复杂的人际关系或情境时缺乏果断的决策能力，同时，女性较重的家庭负担使得她们在工作方面的视野不够开阔。鉴于此，笔者从提高女性管理者管理能力、树立“终身学习”意识和改变传统的社会观念三个角度提出建议，希望女性管理者的管理风格与高校的情境更加和谐，从而为高校的健康稳定发展贡献更多的智慧与力量；除此，也希望本研究能够为有志于成为高校管理者的女性树立信心和提供一些借鉴。更多还原

【Abstract】 As the development of society and change of traditional idea，more and more women began to take charge of management workand they played an important role in the university’s healthy and stabledevelopment. But the reality and home and abroad scholars’ researchall indicate that though the number of university’s women managershas increased, there is a gap between women managers’ status andmen managers’ status. Besides, their management style is also quitedifferent. As far as I am concerned, the reason why there are so manydifferences between them is not only because of physiology, but alsothe more complicated social reason.This research will take six female university’s managers as theresearch object and Fiedler contingency model as the theory model.Literature analysis and interview will be used as the research methods toanalyze management style of university women managers, which willfrom decision、lead and communication these perspectives. I just hopeit can help people have a better understanding of female managers’gender advantage and management style and so female can have abetter development in the university.The research shows that University women managers are confidentand affin and they are good at communicating and understandingothers. Their management is full of gentle and spring, but they lack ofresolution and tend to deal things with private emotion. When theymake decisions, they are cautious and democratic, they would like totake staff’s opinions and their working abilities into account. When theylead work, they through paying attention to staff’s idea and helpingthem work out problems to make the work target come true. When theycommunicate with staffs, they are always willing to care staff’s workand life situation, which can shorten the distance between staff and manager. But women managers’ tolerant and gentle also make themlack of reason, and they are short of decisive ability when they confrontwith complicated Interpersonal relationship or situation. Besides, heavyfamily burden let them can’t have a wide horizon.In view of these, author puts forward some proposals: improvingfemale managers’ management ability; setting up “Lifelong learning”consciousness; changing traditional social ideas. I just hope it can helpwomen’ management style goes well along with the characteristicsand need of the university, so women can contribute more wisdom andpower to the development of university. Besides, I also wish this papercan help women who are willing to be manager in the university builtconfidence and provide them with some reference.更多还原
