MORE THAN 85 BROADS Women Making Career Choices, Taking Risks, and Defining Success on Their Own Terms

The title refers to the network the author helped to create in 1997, originally composed of current and former women employees of Goldman Sachs. Hanson gathers women’s stories of personal success to show that pretty much everything is possible for one who believes in herself (or himself), sets clear objectives, and embraces the possibilities of success. Kate Reading uses light accents and varies her tone and pace to distinguish Hanson from the other voices. The result is an effective presentation of personal statements and anecdotes that articulate Hanson's suggestions for leading a life with meaning and dimension. Without overstatement, Reading brings each illustrative story to life. J.E.M. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine [Published: NOVEMBER 2008]
