"As of 2006, there were only eight women who were CEOs of a Fortune 500 company." (Werhane, xvii)

Patricia Werhane and her co-authors interviewed 22 successful women executives and entrepreneurs to find out how they broke through the glass ceiling. Each interview focuses on one aspect of the achievements, values, vision, and contributions of each business leader. The resulting portraits inspire and educate the reader about new approaches to leadership, problem solving, and decision making.
