Description
The time is now for leaders in companies all over the world to consider women as valued employees for the greater good.
The emancipation of women in the workforce will be one of the greatest financial and corporate revolutions of the 21stcentury.
Re-strategizing traditional corporate structures, to include women and survive this new era of multiformity.
A book which addresses a common corporate ignorance to recognise the diversification in the public sphere, but fails to administer this notability within internal corporate structures.
Written by an author who has first-hand empiricism to the effects of women’s economic empowerment.
