The Remarkable discoveries about what drives and sustains
successful women leaders.
Based on five years of proprietary research, "How Remarkable Women
Lead" speaks to you as no other book has, with its hopeful outlook
and unique ideas about success. It's the new "right stuff" of
leadership, raising provocative issues such as whether feminine
leadership traits (for women and men) are better suited for our
fast-changing, hyper-competitive, and increasingly complex world.
The authors, McKinsey & Company consultants Joanna Barsh and
Susie Cranston, establish the links between joy, happiness, and
distinctive performance with the groundbreaking model of Centered
Leadership.
The book's personal stories and related insights show you the magic
that happens when you put the five elements of Centered
Leadership-meaning, framing, connecting, engaging, and
energizing-to work. They include:
- How Alondra de la Parra built on her strengths and passions to
infuse her life with meaning and make her way in the male-dominated
world of orchestra conducting
- How Andrea Jung, the CEO of Avon, avoided a downward spiral when
the company turned down by "firing herself" on Friday and
re-emerging on Monday as the "new" turnaround CEO
- How Ruth Porat's sponsors at Morgan Stanley not only helped her
grow but were also her ballast for coping with difficult personal
and professional times
-How Eileen Naughton recovered after losing her dream job, landing
on her feet at Google and open to a new leadership opportunity
- How Julie Coates of Woolworth's Australia makes energy key to her
professional success, with reserves for her "second shift" as wife
and mother
"How Remarkable Women Lead" is both profoundly moving and
actionable. Woman or man, you'll find yourself in its pages and
emerge with a practical plan for breaking through at both work and
in life. "
