Abstract
As educational standards rise and women’s understanding of their independence grows, the job sector is steadily altering. Due to changes in their industrial structures and social dynamics, Ghanaian civilizations have progressed from conventional manufacturing to high-tech, informational, and food service sectors. As a result, there are now more direct employment prospects for women than there were in the past when there was a greater need for human resources. The increase in female workplace engagement has benefited the advancement of female leadership in terms of the labor force participation rate. With the use of the specific female personality traits, female managers may build different management styles in company management. A 73% retrieval rate was achieved out of the 650 total copies of the questionnaire that were sent with Kumasi in mind. Among them, 475 were legitimate copies. The conclusions point to three main takeaways: 1 ) leadership is good for cooperation; 2 ) collaboration is good for organizational effectiveness; and 3 ) leadership is good for organizational success. The results are projected to strengthen the leadership of female managers in the catering industry.
