As is often the case when women in positions of power or authority are assertive. They're called b*tches, and men are called, well, assertive. It's a shame, but women in positions like hers need to be extra careful how they come across because they're extra likely to be misinterpreted, and judged on the fact that they're female, rather than what they have to say.
