This is the story of how and why women's full participation in leadership matters is still seemingly a well-kept secret. To have the future we all want, women must play a more robust role in setting priorities and allocating resources. "Women Lead the Way" presents argument, research, and tactical guidance to help readers wedge the door open and bring more women through and up. The evidence from around the world validates the findings of the United Nations General Assembly in 1995, which set a baseline of at least 30 per cent women at the table as a prerequisite for genuine partnership and lasting, positive change in the international arena. We see the same phenomena in the business world. More women as corporate officers and members of boards of directors results in stronger financial performance. At 30 per cent representation, we see concrete, positive outcomes for everyone not just women including increased shareholder value, more flexible management approaches, a broader definition of success, and better bottom lines. More women at the table means more progress for all of us. This book helps readers get started on a win-win women-led strategy to bring about the leadership balance we all need. You will learn how to do away with cultural baggage that boxes us in, gain a clear understanding of how and why Women Lead the Way, and receive practical, road-tested tactics to help you and other women step up and into leadership.

Linda Tarr-Whelan
Rezensionen
Linda Tarr-Whelan s astute and compelling analysis of the need for a critical mass of women at our nation s decision-making tables and how to achieve it is right on target.
Eleanor Smeal, President, Feminist Majority Foundation

Unleashing the potential of women s true economic leadership is critical to growth. We are half the labor force and own nearly half of small businesses without women s full economic participation there will be no complete, sustainable recovery.
Astrid Pregel , Senior Advisor, Women's Economic Empowerment, Canadian International Development Agency and President, Feminomics
"Tarr-Whelan encourages flexibility, willingness to mentor other women, and assertive drive to push for more women in leadership positions." -Vanessa Bush, Booklist "The emphasis on truly changing organizational and societal norms (from donating money to charitable causes that share your goals to actively mentoring and hiring other women) is, in the end, what truly sets this title apart from other recent "women in business" titles." -Sarah Statz Cords, The Reader's Advisor Online (for Library Journal)
