Ready For Female Leadership

In the words of Robert Baker, Ambassador for PWN Global, who has written the Foreword for this book: “The central theme of this book is that the world is ready for, and will hugely benefit from, gender equality and female leadership.This means getting more women into leadership positions and bringing more ‘female’ skills into how future leaders act and behave.” Captured within the covers of this anthology, are 28 essays by a group of women and men who want to contribute to creating gender equality NOW! Among the 28 authors,16 nationalities are represented. All authors have written from their hearts on a variety of topics which need attention, if these goals are to be achieved. The essay topics include:emotional / financial / data-IT intelligencesnetworkingmentoringcareer developmentmen as allies.Individually, each essay captures our personal perspectives, experience, knowledge, or research. Our collective experience and common denominator, is that we all are past or present members of the Professional Women’s Network Netherlands (PWN NL). All essays provide one or more 'calls to action' to inspire you to not let this stay theoretical but to put into practice steps which will actually make a difference. The book is also a testament to the authors of these essays, who unanimously agreed that all proceeds, after costs, will go to a charity supporting (young) women in developing their leadership skills. You will find more information about this charity on our website www.readyforfemaleleadership.org By purchasing this book, you not only give yourself a chance to learn more about gender balanced leadership and developing the very needed female leadership qualities, you also contribute to helping others.
