| Summary |
Despite the strides women have made toward equality in the workplace, they are less happy today than they were 40 years ago. The difficulties of fulfilling their multiple, often conflicting, roles is negatively impacting women's well-being. Progress is being made, but change isn't coming fast enough. Women are tired of waiting for things to get better. Beyond Happy: Women, Work, and Well-Being presents cutting edge research combined with personal stories to illustrate how women can thrive despite the challenges they face. After surveying and interviewing over a thousand women, Beth Cabrera has identified a simple, yet powerful model for enhancing well-being. -- From Author website. |
