N2 - "As women move into leadership and managerial positions in record numbers, there is an increasing need to understand how they will prioritize and integrate the many new roles and possibilities available to them. Standing at the Crossroads looks at the fundamental pressures that influence the career and personal decisions high-achieving women make, and it identifies strategies for adapting to the many demands that both challenge and enhance their lives. Based on extensive research conducted by the Center for Creative Leadership (CCL) with participants in The Women's Leadership Program, the book provides a basis for understanding the many choices, tradeoffs, and decisions that face women daily. Showcasing many personal stories, it spotlights five key themes that are essential to guiding executive women's development today - the need to act authentically, make connections, control one's destiny, achieve wholeness, and gain self-clarity."--BOOK JACKET UR - http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/bios/wiley044/2002003580.html UR - http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/description/wiley036/2002003580.html UR - http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/toc/wiley022/2002003580.html UR - http://firstsearch.oclc.org/WebZ/DCARead?standardNoType=1&standardNo=0787955701:srcdbname=worldcat:fromExternal=true&sessionid=0 UR - http://firstsearch.oclc.org/WebZ/DECRead?standardNoType=1&standardNo=0787955701&sessionid=0&srcdbname=worldcat&key=bae2bca3fc9db4e37c8064e3db9453015154a6385e5e4a400931ed7d0ce1f145&ectype=TOC ER -
