| Summary |
Women Leaders - The Power of Working Abroad will benefit those committed to broadening the ranks of leadership and women aspiring to fast track a career. Working and living abroad is the most powerful development approach to diversify talent pipelines to address the swelling talent shortage and leadership crisis. The authors combine their expertise with the advice of women in senior expatriate roles (WiSER) from all corners of the globe to empower women to overcome barriers slowing their career progression. This gives women an edge to succeed in international assignments by decreasing ramp-up time, enabling a smoother work transition, and promoting high performance quickly. This book makes the opportunity to accelerate women into leadership pipelines, by working and living abroad, accessible to all. Review quote: "In order to meet the leadership demands companies are facing, it is imperative to look beyond traditional leadership development methods to get more women into talent pipelines. I recommend this book for all women (and men too) who seek to accelerate their path to leadership by working and living abroad." Review quote: "Women Leaders - The Power of Working Abroad represents a tremendous contribution, and should be required reading for all students of international business."- |
