Praise for How Women Rise


"A myth-busting how-to for the next generation of women leaders, and those who want to see them succeed. These ideas will transform our workplaces, our careers, and our lives."

Rita McGrath, Professor at Columbia Business School


"Women suffer from gender bias and when they rise further, also from the general difficulties of leadership. When women approach the top of organizations, they can also bring their own strengths that may unfairly be seen as weaknesses. Sally Helgesen's expertise and Marshall Goldsmith's wisdom bring these insights to light, so that women and men and can do better together at reaching their goals for us all to move forward. This is a powerful and timely book."

Dr. Anthony Marx, President, New York public library

Deanna Mulligan, CEO, Guardian Life

Margaret Heffernan, CEO and author of Willful Blindness
