Can reducing human error be solved by increasing the ratio of female managers?

It can be said that it is important not only to increase the number of female managers but also to empower them with substantial authority and to combine this with the cultivation of an appropriate organizational culture.

The increase in the ratio of female managers may contribute to the reduction of human errors. This is because the rise in female managers influences the decision-making processes, the quality of communication, and risk management capabilities in the workplace. With more female managers, diverse perspectives are added to decision-making within the organization. This is believed to prevent judgments based on a single set of values or fixed ideas, leading to careful decision-making that takes risks into account. Additionally, some studies suggest that women generally tend to be more cautious in risk management and often engage in risk-averse behaviors. This may help prevent careless judgments and mistakes due to overconfidence. Organizational communication is also a very important factor. *For more detailed content of the column, please refer to the related links.
