Reviews

'The promise of Gerzema and D'Antonio's vision is compelling. Time alone will tell what choices today's young men and women will make, and the extent to which corporate culture and structures will be transformed as a result' (Financial Times, May 2013) 'The authors show how feminine traits are ascending--and bringing success to people and organizations around the world. By nurturing, listening, collaborating and sharing, women and men are solving problems, finding profits, and redefining success in every realm' (Public Net, June 2013) "The book is worth reading for its case histories alone." (Directorship, July 2014)
