Women are going through an unheard-of metamorphosis right now. Women are making progress despite recent losses in practically every field, including politics, business, and education. We have begun to make more money than our husbands. We are electing more people to public office. In terms of education, we outsmart men. Businesses are scrambling to hire and retain us because they recognise their need for us. Female leaders are crucial to success in the 21st century, according to management experts from prestigious colleges. Of course, not everything is equal yet, and development doesn't always proceed in a straight line, as the most recent Supreme Court decision cruelly demonstrates, but the underlying data and long-term trends demonstrate that the world is irreversibly shifting from one where males dominate, as it has for the past 2000 years, to one where women have an equal voice in governance, if not a stronger one.Why does it feel so difficult and why are there so many tensions that no one wants to talk about if everything is so wonderful (at least for some of us)? Why don't we have more CEOs if almost a dozen international studies have shown that women increase profits? We perform better academically than boys, yet we struggle with STEM? Do we seek power, and do women utilise it differently? Can men ever learn to coexist peacefully and even adore strong women? And if we continue to live in a world that was created by and for men, can we ever make true progress?Do we still need to dress like alpha men?What we require is a new understanding of power and a homefront and workplace that everyone can support and benefit from. Kay and Shipman pose challenging questions, uncovering opportunities that capitalise on women's undervalued strengths and presenting a new operating system that enables women to use their skills to become their most powerful selves. They do this by drawing on the most recent research, interviews with powerful women, and their own personal experiences.
