    administration styles. The study intends to distinguish female leaders from male leaders on groundbreaking, conditional

    Leadership Development Theory, was utilized to decide authority styles. The results identify those female leaders
    have more groundbreaking characteristics (with an average mean of 2.87 as compared to 2.83 for males). However, it was also found that in transactional and laissez-faire styles of leadership, male leaders have an edge over female leader.
    The study highlights this characteristic supports them to overcome challenges when practicing their leadership styles.
