Forget the Glass Ceiling: Build A Biz Without One

A new book, Forget the Glass Ceiling: Build Your Business Without One, takes a practical look at the barriers women face in starting new businesses as well as examining ways over, under, around and through those barriers. Using the experiences of ten high-growth women entrepreneurs, author Geri Stengel, lays out the tactics that women can use to inspire and achieve business success. The book is based on new research on women entrepreneurs, Gender-Global Entrepreneurship and Development Index (GEDI) Research of High-Potential Women Entrepreneurs, the first diagnostic tool that comprehensively identifies and analyzes the conditions that foster the development of high-potential female entrepreneurship. The book and research were recently released at the Dell Women’s Entrepreneur Network event that was held in Austin in June 2014.
