Women who don't wait in line : break the mold, lead the way / Reshma Saujani. by Saujani, Reshma. New Harvest, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2013. Call #: 658.4092 S255w Subjects Women in the professions.   Leadership in women.   Women executives.   Achievement motivation in women.   Success in business. ISBN:  9780544027787 (hc.) 0544027787 (hc.) Description:  xxiv, 143 p. ; 22 cm Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references (pages 133-143) Summary:  Reshma Saujani, the former New York City Deputy Public Advocate and founder of the national nonprofit Girls Who Code, argues that aversion to risk and failure is the final hurdle holding women back in the workplace. Saujani advocates a new model of female leadership based on sponsorship--where women encourage each other to compete, take risks, embrace failure, and lift each other up personally and professionally. Woven throughout the book are lessons and stories from accomplished women like Susan Lyne, Randi Zuckerberg, Mika Brzezinski, and Anne-Marie Slaughter, who have faced road blocks and overcome them by forging new paths, being unapologetically ambitious, and never taking no for an answer. Readers are also offered a glimpse into Saujani's personal story, including her immigrant upbringing and the insights she gleaned from running a spirited campaign for U.S. Congress in 2010.
