In this provocative book, Margaret Heffernan, former CEO andFast Company contributor, fuses her own experience with thatof hundreds of women to identify the biggest challenges and thebest solutions that women face today. From VPs of Fortune 100companies to entrepreneurs to women just starting their careers,she traces the patterns and themes underlying women's power,choices, love, sex, money, and many other vital topics for workingwomen. Without sugar-coating the facts, preaching, oroversimplifying, she offers solutions and shares the truth aboutthe working world: women's choices are limited, you can't have itall, women do work differently from men and, yes, it is possible tofind success amidst all of this and feel good about it. "Finally! A book that exposes the masculine myths about what ittakes to be effective in business and helps women reclaim therelational intelligence we have been taught to ignore. A must-readfor all women who want to increase their power and influence in theworkplace—especially those who are thinking of leavingbecause they are tired of the corporate gamesmanship that requiressplitting themselves into a 'work me' and a 'home me.'" —Joyce K.
