Product Description
Female Executive Stress Syndrome (FESS) is a book about the first national research study to focus exclusively on all aspects of being a woman in corporate America. FESS presents overwhelming proof that women can succeed in an adverse environment while leading a balanced and happy personal life. Dr. Gearing's book is the first to successfully outline the basis for the empowerment of all working-women in today's world. Surprising findings include the following: 1) The healthiest female executives share ten specific coping secrets that are keys to their phenomenal success in corporate America. No research has ever identified these valuable secrets. 2) The majority of best-adjusted, most-successful women in the study identified strongly with both "masculine" and "feminine" characteristics. As one woman said, "I can think like a man and feel like a woman." 3) Top female executives show more hard-driving competitive "Type A" behavior than four out of five American men. 4)Despite working in an adverse climate, top married female executives with children show fewer symptoms of stress and depression than the average American man. Ultimately, Dr. Gearing's FESS is about empowerment through knowledge. The secrets of this book can save women years of trial and error in running their lives by helping them learn from the successful women who have come before them. If for no other reason, FESS should be at the top of every working-woman's required reading list!Books:
