Well, here’s some interesting research findings from Germany, where investigators found women talk longer on the phone than their male counterparts. Before you say, “How many Ph.D.’s did that take?,” read the brief article on their investigation at the link below:

So, what do you think of this research finding? Agree/disagree - and any examples from your own work experience? From your personal life (and please, don’t name names!)? How might this help/hinder job performance for women? Enjoy - and feel free to forward to your friends and colleagues! And remember, post your comments in response to the article at that link

I could so agree, women do call more. When men make calls they want to get all the info even if it takes all day rather than call back 5 times like women.
