Resumen
This paper studies gender stereotypes about leadership competencies among men and women, and the effect of stereotypical thinking on the self-esteem regarding these competencies. We rely on original survey data that measures both gender stereotypical thinking and self-esteem in an extensive list of 25 leadership competencies. Our main finding is that gender stereotypical attitudes have a substantial effect on self-esteem and that this effect is greater for women than for men. We also find that the strongest stereotypes exist for competencies that women are considered to be better at (such as empathizing); that both men and women have stereotypes, although stereotypes are stronger among men (especially for competencies that are most closely related to leadership); that there are substantial gender differences in self-esteem in certain specific leadership competencies but not in general leading competency; and that implicit leadership theories are strongly related to gender stereotypes (competencies that are more strongly related to leadership, are also competencies of which respondents consider that men are better at it).
