Abstract
The success or failure of an organisation cannot be severed from its leadership, as such the imperative of leadership in every organization cannot be overemphasized. Men by default are seen as leaders in every organisations, construction industry inclusive. Research abound on the leadership potentials of men, whereas little to nothing is known about leadership potentials of women. Women have ability to influence, and their in-built traits have no little measure in building their capacities to be a leader. Their positions as elder sisters, wives and mothers are potentials for leadership and their abilities to influence play significant roles in leadership. More findings indicate that the predominant leadership potentials exhibited by women are emphatic potentials, ethical potentials and multi-tasking potentials. The study concluded that the leadership potentials of women are essential ingredient that propel them to move from physiological needs to self transcendence need which is the highest need of humans as postulated in the Maslow’s theory.
