The business world is mostly made up of women, and the majority of students in business schools are women. Young women today are receiving the training they need to be successful business leaders, and they will be in high demand. But most top corporate leadership posts are still occupied by men, and women still make up no more than a small minority in the most senior roles and on corporate boards. How can women who want to lead achieve the success their qualifications merit? In DARE, trailblazing executive Becky Blalock show women how to find the savvy and courage to take risks, and ultimately achieve--and succeed in--positions of leadership. DARE draws on Blalocks own personal story; during a 33 year career, she rose to serve as CIO at Southern Company, a Fortune 500 utility firm. The book also features interviews Blalock has conducted with powerful executive women.
