Pharmacists by Gender
By the numbers For the first time in history, pharmacy
shifted from a male-dominated to a female-dominated profession
The percentage of women in management positions increased from 37% in 2000 to 41% in 2004, women remain underrepresented in these positions.
You will be working with both genders as their superiors and subordinates

Pharmacists by Race In the 2003–04 academic year of
Pharm.D. degrees conferred as the first professional degree by schools and colleges of pharmacy in the United States.
60% white
23% Asian Americans
12% underrepresented minorities, including 7.7% for blacks, 3.7% Hispanics, and 0.4% for American Indians.
You will be working with more diversity

Pharmacist by Practice SiteShift away from ‘Independent, Chain etc.’ to ’Hospital and Other Patient Care Practice’
National Pharmacist Workforce Study. April 2015. https://www.aacp.org/sites/default/files/finalreportofthenationalpharmacistworkforcestudy2014.pdf
Money May Not Be Enough
More than 70% of pharmacist earn at least $120,000
Half are paid as salaried and half work as hourly employees
Hospital and Managed Care pharmacists tend to make more money
There is a correlation between education and income (to a point)
The number of pharmacists receiving bonuses, incentive pay or other profit-sharing reward continues to decline. Men tend to receive larger bonuses than women
More than a quarter are dissatisfied in their current position Job satisfaction metrics haven’t changed in the
past few years but aren’t good.

”From experiences of the past we learn instructive lessons for the future”JQ Adams
How is Good Leadership Defined?
What behaviors characterize effective leaders? What is “it”? Leaders vary their behavior within boundaries of their style shaped by
talent, strengths and preference Usual organizational vs. emergency (may be the norm)
Also depends on context Societal values Culture of the organizations Nature of the task Characteristics of the followers
Is Leadership the same a Management Skills? Communicate with others Handle conflicts Delegate tasks Use their time efficiently Analyze problems and reach sound and fair decisions
Behaviors Associated in People’s Mind with Leadership
Communal –Feminine ?
Agentic –Masculine ?
Affectionate AggressiveHelpful AmbitiousFriendly DominantKind Self-confidentSympathetic ForcefulGentle Self-reliantSoft-spoken IndividualisticView Women as Less CompetentLack Leadership Potential
May initiate negotiations and self-select into competitive environments
There may be a significant mix of these stereotypic behaviors in-between these extremes

Bias for Strength Based Leadership
• Our culture tends to focus on weaknesses not strengths• Parents focus on F s not A s and students remediate• News focus is on bad news, not great news
Negativity bias
• To actively manage change, you first need to define the core problem and diagnosis a root cause• Anchoring - rely too heavily one piece of information• Negative
Deficit-based change bias
• Boss says “Jan, we need a meeting; I need to give you feedback (neutral)”
• Leaders who are capable of triggering positive emotions (hope, optimism and resilience) achieve superior results
Neutral bias
• We underestimate the universe of strengths people have at their disposal and fail to develop them
• The highest level of performance and accomplishment co-occurring with the highest levels of employee satisfaction are found where leaders take an interest in and support the employees’ ability to bring their strengths into play
Underestimation bias
Donald O. Clifton: The Father of Strengths-Based Psychology and Creator of the Clifton StrengthsFinder
Strengths Based Leadership Equation
Talent (an innate and natural way of thinking, feeling or acting – similar at 3, 26 or 66)
X investment (the time you spend training, developing your skills and adding to your knowledge within the field)
--- competency and knowledge level--- for every hour you spend on your
weaknesses, spend three hours on your strengths--- the task of leadership is to create an
alignment of strengths; making our weaknesses insignificant
= strength
Strength is an innate talent that we have invested time and energy in developing which we may use to create high performance for individuals and organizations.
Your strengths are positive, they are your multiplier, magnifier, and represent you at your best.

Leadership Styles – (Transactional)
Contingent Reward Leadership
Establish work standards, communicate these standards to their subordinates, and let them know the rewards they will receive if they perform favorably. •Establishes a series of contract with employees•Centers on followers immediate self interest and
effort for reward
Management-by-exception LeadershipTakes advantage of the power to reward/penalize subordinates based on the formal authority that goes with their position in the organization. •They identify errors and discipline workers for poor
performance.•Or identify errors and take no action
•Laissez-faire is most uniformly coordinated with negative outcomes
Leadership Style – Most Effective
•Stimulates subordinates to move beyond their own self-interests and work toward the interest of the group/organization as a whole
•Mentor and develop their subordinates, both on a professional and personal level
•Challenge their subordinates to do their best, and provide them with meaning and purpose
Transformational Leadership
•Be charismatic to their followers and serve a role models•Instill pride in their association with you
•Intellectually stimulate employees*•Encourage creative problem solving; apply innovative techniques
•Persuade employees to believe in the mission and attainability*•Inspirational and enthusiastic talk and optimism about the future
•Meet the emotional needs of their employees (individualization)*•Spend time developing, teaching and coaching
•* Noted more commonly among women leaders

Where are Women Still Disadvantaged?
• Gallup Poll question 1975-2006: ”If you were taking a new job and had a choice of a boss, would you prefer to work for a man or woman?”• Although dropping, respondents still prefer a
male boss; highest response is no-preference• This societal gender prejudice can limit access
to leadership roles and hiring• Even when families have paid help, decision makers often
assume that domestic responsibilities will make it inappropriate to promote women to demanding positions.
Societal gender
prejudice
•Women devote 19 hours per week to housework and men contribute 11 hours. While a huge improvement since 1965, it is still a major inequity
•Mothers and fathers are putting in more time providing child care. Married mothers increased their hours from 10.6 in 1965 to 12.9 in 2000; and married fathers increased from 2.6 to 6.5 hours per week
•* Life goals and outcomes that men and women associate with professional advancement may be different (societal)•Women view advancement as equally attainable, but less
desirable due to trade-offs, sacrifices, and compromise•Women themselves may be anxious about promotions
offered as presenting sacrifices or difficult trade-offs (negative outcomes to their core life goals)
•May prefer work-life integration (not balance) over promotion
•Know this will widen your “retirement gap” and “pay gap”
