"Michelle King has written a book that is more than necessary today. With its clarity and common sense, its passion and practicality, it is a vital piece calling for a workplace that actually works for women. Michelle provides actions to take that do not succumb to the notion of "fixing" women... Michelle writes with elegance and precision, inviting us all in to be better informed and better understood."

Meredith Walker, Founder

Amy Poehler's Smart Girl

"So much about the world of work-from workplace culture to our definition of success-was created by men, and it's not working for women or indeed for men. And it's no surprise that women pay a disproportionately high price for their participation. That's why it (this book) is so important. It's a passionate, practical roadmap for addressing inequality and finally making our workplaces work for women."

Arianna Huffington, Author and Founder

The Huffington Post and Thrive Global

"A visionary leader changing the inclusion landscape "

Billie Jean King, Founder

Billie Jean King Leadership Initiative

"Michelle is not only extremely knowledgeable with her background and research on gender inequality, but she applies those insights specifically to the workplace and brings it to life. Michelle has a truly unique way of connecting with her audience. She makes the research come to life and provides real "a-ha" moments and practical takeaways that can be applied in any organization."

Claudia Chan, CEO

SHE Global

"Michelle King's podcast is like no other, highlighting the stories of women who are driving innovation across every sphere of life. Her interviews crackle with intelligence, wit and passion that enlightens as well as engages both women and men."
