Some leaders are born women, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said at the groundbreaking APEC Women and the Economy Summit in San Francisco in Sept. 2011. Women leaders can be found driving change through political movements, emerging market growth, or grassroots activism, yet their stories are not always highlighted. This book reviews the transformation that has taken hold in recent years -- the collective recognition that investing in women is not only smart, it also delivers high impact social and economic returns, and is critical to the global economy.
