And yet, she managed to succeed. Now, she gives other women the benefit of her experience as well as that of the diverse female founders she interviewed. What did they all have in common? Which strategies brought success and which failed? How did they persevere through the hard times? This practical, hands-on guide and the powerful and passionate women profiled in it answer these questions and more, paving the way for all women to succeed.
