About this book

She Dared to Succeed (en français, Elle a osĂ© rĂ©ussir ), plonge dans la vie d'une femme ayant brisĂ© pendant plus de 30 ans de multiples plafonds de verre au sein des univers mĂ©diatiques et politiques canadiens. Bien connue du milieu de la radiotĂ©lĂ©vision, elle est propulsĂ©e Ă  l'avant-scĂšne politique avec sa nomination au SĂ©nat du Canada (1995), puis son Ă©lection Ă  la prĂ©sidence du Parti LibĂ©ral du Canada (2006). Pour y parvenir, elle a dĂ» surmonter plusieurs dĂ©fis?: sexisme, prĂ©jugĂ©s Ă  l'endroit des mĂšres monoparentales et des femmes de carriĂšre, Ă©cart salarial, harcĂšlement en milieu de travail. Surtout, elle a vĂ©cu l'opprobre rĂ©servĂ© aux membres du SĂ©nat– tous exonĂ©rĂ©s – ciblĂ©s dans le cadre du scandale des dĂ©penses du SĂ©nat (2012-2016) et tĂ©moigne du coĂ»t humain de ce triste chapitre de l'histoire canadienne. Cette biographie, dotĂ©e d'une prĂ©face de l'honorable John Manley, est le fruit d'un travail de recherche impressionnant de la part de l'auteur, qui a non seulement longuement interviewĂ© Madame Charrette-Poulin, mais qui menĂ© 67 interviews avec plusieurs personnalitĂ©s canadiennes, dont les trĂšs honorables Jean ChrĂ©tien et Brian Mulroney, les honorables Sheila Copps, Sharon Carstairs, Mike Duffy, Hugh Segal, CĂ©line Hervieux-Payette, Vivienne Poy, Linda Frum, Sheila Fraser, de mĂȘme que les juges Robert Desmarais et Robert Del Frate.Elle a osĂ© rĂ©ussir... malgrĂ© tout.Également disponible en en français ( Elle a osĂ© rĂ©ussir )
Disponible en formats relié et broché, PDF et ePUB accessibles.
