In an era marked by a frustrating sense of stagnation for women,
Jennifer Palmieri has found a way to move beyond the bounds of
patriarchy. Building on the lessons shared in Dear Madam President,
Palmieri argues that women have gone as far as they can in a world
made for men, and it is time to break from it. She Proclaims

out loud-that they deserve something better than a life where men
hold a vast majority of power and women continue to be undervalued.

chases a man's elusive path but proclaims the value, ambition, and
emotion women have had all along to change their world by changing
how they engage in it. This book celebrates the accomplishments and

and stories of other inspirational female leaders, Jennifer shares
concrete advice and insights she's learned from her journey out of
a man's world that will inspire you to boldly chart your own course

DEAR MADAM PRESIDENT is an empowering letter from former Hillary
Clinton Communications Director Jennifer Palmieri to the first
woman president, and by extension, to all women working to succeed
in any field. By using lessons learned during her experiences with
Hillary Clinton, President Obama, and Elizabeth Edwards--to name a
few--Palmieri through each chapter creates a forward-thinking
framework of inspirational and practical advice for all women
everywhere--from boardrooms to living rooms--who are determined to
seize control of their lives, their workplaces, and their country.
DEAR MADAM PRESIDENT will turn the results of the 2016 election
into something incredibly empowering for future female leaders and
independent thinkers everywhere. As a country, we haven't wrapped
our heads around what it should look like for a woman to be in the
job of President. Our only models are men. This of course was seen
during the Hillary Clinton campaign, and no one knows this better
than Jennifer Palmieri. While wildly disappointed by the outcome of
the election, Palmieri optimistically argues in the book that the
Clinton candidacy and all she experienced on the campaign
trail--confusion, admiration, hate, love, acceptance,
rejection--can now open the country up to reimagining women in
leadership roles. And that is what Palmieri takes on in this
book--redefining expectations for women looking to lead and
creating a blueprint for women candidates and leaders to follow.
