"Finally! A book that exposes the masculine myths about what it takes to be effective in business and helps women reclaim the relational intelligence we have been taught to ignore. A mustread for all women who want to increase their power and influence in the workplaceespecially those who are thinking of leaving because they are tired of the corporate gamesmanship that requires splitting themselves into a work me and a home me."
Joyce K. Fletcher , professor of management, Simmons School of Management, Boston, Massachusetts
"Margaret Heffernan has provided us with that rarest commodity of alla wise book. Its well written. Its got great stories. But mostly its wise; it deserves to be read carefully and digested. I, frankly, was mesmerized by virtually every page and every vignette. Bravo!"
Tom Peters
"What I like about Margarets book (and Margaret for that matter) is the nononsense approach she brings to the topic of women in business. Its not just that she sounds like the mentor you wish you had, its also that she doesnt shy away from any topic, refuses to sugarcoat her own experience or her advice, and recognizes that the issues of women in business wont get serious discussion until they cease to be a themagainstus mindless posture. Shes real. Shes smart. Shes experienced. She speaks the truth. What more could you want?"

"They say the truth will set you free. It can also make you hopping mad! At a time when so many have given up telling the truth about women and men in the traditional corporation, along comes Margaret Heffernan prepared to take on the truth with a clear eye and a wry smile. Get free! Get mad! Let it stir you into action. Let it inspire you to roll up your sleeves and build a new kind of workplaceone that honors the complex realities of our twentyfirst century lives."
