  • A decade ago, Dr. Patti Fletcher delved into this idea in her doctoral research: what did successful business women actually do to succeed? She could have focused on female CEOs and similar executives, but she wanted to go straight to the top: she conducted in-depth interviews with women on boards of directors of large, publicly traded companies in the highly competitive and traditionally male-dominated technology and healthcare industries

  • Partnership with SAP to promote the book in campaigns that support both corporate themes and events. Examples of events include, but are not limited to, SAP events (e.g., SAPPHIRE), regional SAP events (e.g., SuccessConnect in the Americas or EMEA), and country events (e.g., North America VIP tours and roadshows, as well as external events such as Mobile World Congress).
