Women Who Mean Business

By: Kimberly Martinez,Lee Milteer

I do not know anyone who has got to the top without hard work. That is the recipe. It will not always get you to the top, but it should get you pretty near. Margaret Thatcher Women Who Mean Business features Celebrity Experts who have achieved outstanding success in their fields. They offer you both their knowledge and their experience to inspire you to do the same. From astronauts to poets to physicists to world leaders, the 20th century was replete with successful women who shattered the stereotype of the "weaker" sex. Too often these accomplishments went unlauded. In the vibrant twenty-first century, women are demonstrating that they are equally capable of succeeding in the entrepreneurial world; in fact, not just succeeding but leading. Women Who Mean Business celebrates leading female entrepreneurs and the achievements (and failures) that propelled them to where they are today. Our authors reveal techniques and methods used in the online world and the New (Social) Media, ways to attain goals, the principles of delegating, lead sourcing, lessons learned from mistakes in the corporate world, and numerous others. Such positive motivation from today's leaders makes this an exciting and crucial read for all who desire to learn the proven techniques used by successful businesswomen. Wouldn't it be great if you could learn from the mistakes of others and shorten your road to success? The Celebrity Experts in this book draw their material from a rich background of experience and entrepreneurialism. If you dream of joining their ranks, the following expresses it all: May the dreams of your past be the reality of your future. Author Unknown
