Womenomics: Write Your Own Rules for Success

Womenomics: Write Your Own Rules for Success

by Claire Shipman (Author), KattyKay (Author), Claire Shipman (Author), Katherine Kay (Author)

Synopsis

Veteran journalists Claire Shipman and Katty Kay marshal the evidence to show how women's management style is ideally suited to the new business world, resulting in more profitable companies with happier employees. They also show how women can use this power to get what they really want - more time and freedom in their jobs without falling off the professional ladder. Most women will happily trade some responsibility and some cash for more time-that's the new currency.
