Women often see the world from a different angle than men. But this fact has been overlooked in most organizations. In this brilliant and strongly argued new book, Sally Helgesen and Julie Johnson demonstrate why "the female vision"---what women notice, what they value, how they connect the dots --- constitutes women's most powerful asset in the workplace. Drawing on multiple strands of research, including their own Satisfaction Profile Assessment, they show what companies must do to engage, energize, and support talented women. And they show women how to nurture and sustain their own greatest gifts.
"The Female Vision is powerful, fresh, a must-read. Helgesen and Johnson recognize that fully half of our future will be determined by women and argue for the power of what women see."---Tina Brown, Cofounder and Editor-in-Chief, The Daily Beast
"Perhaps the most significant contribution of The Female Vision is the evidence that women bring moral force to their work and will become indispensable when they are allowed to be more than Cassandras warning of failure before it occurs."---Matthew Winkler, Editor-in-Chief, Bloomberg News
"Sally Helgesen and Julie Johnson redefine how we think about women's real power as leaders. Compelling, visionary, and powerful."---Cathie Black, President, Hearst Magazines
"A seminal book that proposes nothing less than a wholesale revision of how we work, live, and view the world. Solid research, lively writing, profound insights."---Tom Peters, coauthor of In Search of Excellence
