Leading Men Only
Dr. Richard Norris
Over the last 50 years, as women entered the professional world in droves, men found themselves in the odd position of role reversal or the sharing of responsibility in their traditional role of leaders, on the job, as well as at home. During this amazing transformation of women, men have found that as the women they loved grew and developed their own leadership skills, their role as the head of the family was changing in many ways as well. Traditional male/female roles were becoming confused and intertwined. Many conflicts and disagreements arose and for a while there was a great deal of “man” bashing language being used all too freely by, you guessed it, women.
It’s been a tough road for men. They worry about the insecurity of their job. Then the issue comes up regarding day care, if the spouse goes to work to help pay bills. In some cases men also work longer hours or a second or third job. They are torn between obligations to the family, work, and their personal needs. Their relationship, health, and the finances become a battle. The result is extreme stress.
Now in 2013 the dust has settled and both genders have become more comfortable with their newly defined roles as equals. Stronger leadership skills are necessary for both men and women. DR.Richard Norris has stepped up to support his male counterparts in their quest to improve their natural talents and attributes, and is on a mission to empower men to reach their greatest potential and assist in lowering stress levels.
