“Your book gave me so much inspiration. I have a mentor but not a sponsor and it is such a valuable suggestion. Your overall insights into how girls and boys are raised is just so brilliant. I have twins, a boy and a girl, and so much of what you have outlined is just so simple and true. I feel inspired and motivated, thank you. I would suggest all business women should read this book.”

“In my four decades as a woman in business – both in management and as a consultant – I’ve read tons of books and attended seminars galore but this says it all in a concise and easy read. It’s the kind of book women need to keep close and dip into regularly. No matter how much we think we know, we need constant reminders.It’s like having a mentor as close as your handbag!”

“What I love about this book is the practicality of the advice offered on what it takes for women to succeed in the world of work. I think we are all versed in the challenges women face in being successful business leaders and in the issues pertaining to the pay, representation and power gap. Much has been written about this but not as much about what to do to overcome the hurdles. Donna has succinctly packaged the success traits of men with the unique value that women bring into a quick, easy to read (and digest) guide to how to play to win in environments that by and large have been created and continue to be dominated by men. I recognized myself as well as my behaviour in one or two places in the book and I believe every woman who reads this will find at least one thing that this relevant for them. More importantly, at least one thing that they can clearly implement to transform them into the powerhouse they were meant to be. Well worth a read!”

“This might be a small book. But it packs a punch. It simply and clearly highlights what it is that too many women do differently from men in business. And those things are to their detriment. If you want to benefit from the advice of women at the top of their game and what they’re learned about acing the men on the court of business play – this is a great way to start.”
