How women can make it to the top by adopting the new rules of
leadership
Women hold just 11 percent of the most senior-level leadership
positions in U.S. Corporations--a number that hasn't changed in
over 30 years. How can women break through? "Break Your Own Rules"
distills the six faulty assumptions (or "rules") most women follow
that get in the way--then delivers the correlating new rules that
promise to clear that path. For example, the old rule of "Focus on
Others" must be replaced by "Take Center Stage," "Hard Work Will
Get You There" must yield to "Be Politically Savvy." "Play It Safe"
must give way to "Play to Win." "Ask Permission" must be replaced
by "Proceed Until Apprehended."Features the results of over 1,700
interviews with executives in Fortune 1000 companies, as well as
the authors' new research and ongoing work with over 5,000
professional womenShowcases previously-untold stories from high
