    Ann Votta masterfully captures the reader’s curiosity with a valuable, timeless topic. Her storytelling maintains the reader’s interest from beginning to end. I particularly enjoyed her honesty and vulnerability as she described her own journey through the corporate world. Ann reminds us of the importance of placing people above profit, which naturally results in greater yield for everyone in an organization. A must read for anyone seriously interested in improving their own work life and that of their peers and teams.

    As a woman who started her full-time working life in the mid-1980s, I lived and worked (as a wife and mother of two children) through much of the social history conveyed in this book. Indeed, I was part of the movement! The information presented in the book is well curated and accessible. Reading it reminded me of how far we have come, even if the movement’s work may never be done. All of us who benefitted from workplace changes described in the book have many to thank–and now we all can remember who those pioneers were. I am grateful that Ann Votta, one of the movement’s early and ongoing leaders, took time to chronicle its stages, accomplishments, and many individual and institutional contributors.
