Abstract
This study examined the perceived conflict-management behavior and eff ectiveness of 45 managers who had been rated by 230 subordinates as re presenting masculine, feminine, or androgynous gender-role types. Anal ysis indicated that managers perceived by their subordinates as being androgynous were rated as better handlers of conflict situations than their masculine or feminine peers.
