Men and women have different language styles based on gender. *Brainstorm a list of workplace situations in which it would be advantageous to use a feminine language style. *Now think of workplace situations in which using a feminine language style would put you at a disadvantage. *Next, identify situations in which it would be advantageous or disadvantageous to use a masculine language style. *Finally, write down several ways you can become fluent in the style of the other gender. (If you develop this flexibility, you will be able to choose either style, depending on the situation.)
