Disrupters: Success Strategies from Women Who Break the Mold

Description

Disrupters is the anti- Lean In. It's not about what women should do. It's not a preachy TEDTalk. It shows what different women business leaders have done to reach success as they define it, from board members to CEOs to freelancers. The game of business is stacked against women because they follow the unspoken rules of corporate culture, made long before women entered the workforce. This book helps them recognize those rules, then showcases the women who've found success by breaking them. Dr. Patti Fletcher includes in her book first-person in-depth interviews with dozens of trailblazing women executives and board members. This exciting and uplifting book demystifies what it takes to go where so few have gone before.
