It helps HR professionals and business executives take a practical approach on how to move this topic forward within organizations.

Lead the Change is a very engaging book and a very pleasant read with an authentic personal touch.  

I am really thrilled to support Cooper's book that inspires action from leaders and executives on Gender Diversity & Inclusion. Sodexo knows that gender balance fosters creativity and innovation and ultimately drives better business results. When women reach their full potential, business and society are stronger and more successful. I definitely think this book will be helpful to leaders and organizations.
