Connie Brown Glaser and Barbara Steinberg Smalley argue that female managers no longer need to act like men to be successful.
Instead,
women managers should depend on their natural attributes - intuition, nurturing, having respect for individuals - to create webs rather than hierarchies. This bold, timely book is packed with profiles of women who have succeeded on their own terms. The writing is lean and cuts to the chase. getAbstract.com recommends this book as a likely inspiration and a helpful guide to most women (
particularly managers) trying to cope with the old folkways of
corporate America. The male manager will also find that it offers him a new perspective at work and a wake-up call at home.
