المرأة القيادية


Explanation:
التعبير في الأساس ليس له علاقة بالمناصب
وأشيعه استخداما هو وصف المرأة التي تلفت الانتباه بقوة شخصيتها بين النساء بحيث تقودهم وراءها كما تقود ملكة النحل خلفها النحل من الإناث والذكور
ومن الممكن أن تجد مثلا في أي شركة سكرتيرة لها خبرة اكبر من مديرها في مجريات العمل وتكون هي المرجع لمن يرسل خطاب في مؤسسة معينة مثلا
ووصف امرأة بأنها ملكة جمال النحل وصف لأسلوبها وهيمنتها وليس وصف لمنصبها في مؤسسة
