Sister Leaders: Reflections and Success Stories of Women Leaders Who Purposely Collaborate With Other Women

By: Dr. Karen Hills Pruden

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

This anthology is a collection of experiences where women leaders express why they purposely collaborate with other women in life, career and leisure. There are times you may have heard about the competitiveness of female professionals for various reasons. There are just as many collaborations and success stories to boast that there are women who know the value of pooling knowledge and resources to accomplish goals. From a woman coming to the rescue of another sister to aid her in leaving an abusive relationship. To a woman hiring manager putting in a good word to hire a qualified, female candidate who was missing one certification credential, to joining businesses, to mentorship; women help other women.

Some of you have heard the term, 'the ole boys' network'. There are networks of women who serve to elevate fellow sisters as well. Women are still disproportionately represented in senior leadership positions. Some women have choose the path of entrepreneurship to lead in areas where they hit the glass ceiling in Corporate America. Women can lead people and lead change using technology and analytics just like their male counterparts. Some women have found it difficult to get pass the male dominated hiring panel to pursue their dreams.

The Sister Leaders Community is a global, multi-generational community of women who are current, past, and future women leaders. Within the community, the Sister Leaders share knowledge, resources, educational opportunities and networks with one goal in mind. The singular goal is to create a legacy of qualified, competent women leaders across all industries. This book expresses some of their expereinces.
