Women's success in the workplace has given rise to a new phenomenon -- the nightmare female boss, the Daily Mail reported.

Experts claim that an increasing number of women in positions of power are bullying colleagues and employees.

A survey by the British Association of Anger Management reveals that a fifth of female bosses admit to shouting or being verbally abusive at work.

Ten percent of women executives admit to blaming and shaming colleagues when things go wrong.

However, almost 90 percent of those surveyed said they had experienced an increase in stress, with more than 60 per cent citing poor management as the reason for their anxiety.

十分之一的女主管们承认，如果工作出问题，曾经怪罪或羞辱同事。

但同时大约90%的被调查女老板称，她们面临着日益加剧的压力，超过60%的女老板认为，管理不善是她们焦虑的主要原因。
