The CEO of your company has asked you, the human resource manager, to conduct a study to determine whether or not male managers and female managers perceive leadership styles differently and, if differences are found, to develop a training program that will benefit gender differences in leadership. To this end you selected, randomly, 10 male managers and 10 female managers to participate in your study. To each manager a leadership style survey questionnaire was administered. The questionnaire chosen was the Blake & Mouton Managerial Gridas it assesses leadership behavior. The numeric raw data results of the 18 question study are as follows:

Raw Numeric Questionnaire Data
Question	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9
Male	4	4.6	3.2	3.9	4.2	3.7	4.1	4.5	3.5
Female	4.2	4.1	4.2	4.6	3.9	4.1	4.7	4.1	4.2

Raw Numeric Questionnaire Data
Question	10	11	12	13	14	15	16	17	18
Male	4	3.9	4	3	4.5	4.9	3	3.3	3
Female	4	4.2	4.1	4	4.5	4.3	3.9	4	3.7

Complete the following in a single MS Word or Excel document:

1. Calculate the mean, median, mode, variance, and standard deviation for the numeric data.
2. Construct a histogram, pie, or Stem-Leaf Display chart encompassing the mean leadership scores for both male and female managers. Use an online interactive program to formulate your histogram, pie charts, or Stem-Leaf Display.
3. Construct a histogram for median score values for male managers and female managers with respect to management style.
4. Analyze the data and present preliminary conclusions based on answers to questions #2 and #3 with respect to the leadership style differences between male and female managers.
5. Offer a brief 5-point summary of the training program you might use to strengthen the leadership deficiencies found in either or both the male and female manager leadership style.
