This is a book of stories. Tales of women who have 'made it'. Ordinary women with extraordinary careers. You would not have known it from their histories; some of them even looked as though they were being groomed for failure. All of them are moving and inspiring.As I collected these tales, some of my old ideas about developing both men and women at work began to shift. We have not been looking for some important qualities when choosing our leaders and therefore we have not been spotting and developing our talent in the best possible way.This book tells the story and looks at some of the most striking themes they seem to have in common, it changed my life and my thinking around my own organisation and the work it does.It is a book for developers of people and recruitment professionals. It is a book for parents rearing the leaders of tomorrow.It is a book to make you think.This is a book for men and women with ambition for success and happiness. The two are not exclusive.
