The inspiring stories give an intimate look at how remarkable women really get things done, providing a development model valuable to both women and men.

"Anyone who believes that management innovation is an imperative will find fistfuls of insights in How Remarkable Women Lead. Here are the stories of amazing women leaders in the context of an imaginative and pragmatic framework that rests on a rich fact base. It puts to rest stereotypes we have about who leaders are and how to lead. This work contributes to a much-needed conversation, putting forth a persuasive view on new capabilities for the 21st century leader, such as engaging the whole organization through meaning, energy and joy. The seeds for our future are in here. The new CEO is a woman or a man who is not afraid to drop his John Wayne costume."
– Gary Hamel, author of The Future of Management and Leading the Revolution

"How Remarkable Women Lead is a book that will truly resonate with all women. It is personal, powerful and revealing and thereby true to how we women live and lead. The story-telling makes this unlike any business book I know; these are people who have faced every challenge imaginable and still made their mark. So truthful, so revealing, it's a book at once inspirational and practical - a unique duality."
– Elizabeth Smith, president, Avon Products, Inc
