Abstract

The study examined the gender gap and its implication on management practice in the Nigeria banking sector. Various literatures were reviewed that showed the implication of gender gap in banking sector. Both primary and secondary data were used in the study. Chi-square technique was used to test the study hypotheses. The study conclusion revealed that female bank managers hold positive perceptions about their pay and promotion policies, which generates high job satisfaction, while their male counterparts hold favorable opinions about pay and promotion policies The study recommended that Management should ensure that female manager should be given upward mobility in taking responsibility in their various departments and also, male and female should be given the same remunerations in their position, so as to increase the rate of effectiveness and sense of belonging in the banking sector now and in the future.
