This book looks at three major forces that are converging to create an unprecedented opportunity for women in the work force: the shift in the U.S. economy from industrial to knowledge-based and how companies now require new management skills to compete; the low birth rates of the 1970'sand the crisis in hiring and staffing that will result for companies that do not target women as strategic hires; and scientific data on men's and women's brain differences as well as data from management assessment centers that support the theory that women have unique skills to apply to the business environment. This book explores the convergence of these threeforces, and then gives women a road map for taking advantage of the opportunity they have to make real inroads into positions of leadership in today's corporations. The book is written by Janet Wylie, a successful businesswoman who has held vice president level positions in two different Fortune 500 firms. With nearly 20 years of major corporate experience, her unique experiences and her many successes make her uniquely qualified to give practical advice mixed with humorous stories and real life examples tocoach and mentor women who seek to move up the ladder. Foreword by Lynn Martin, formerly Secretary of Labor.
