Summary	A diverse group of women leaders share their incredible stories and empower other immigrant women to reach their full potential and succeed on their own terms.
	"Of the 73 million women in the US workforce, 11.5 million are foreign-born. The truth is--even in the midst of headlines and political debates about immigration reform and in the wake of MeToo and other female-centric movements--millions of immigrants, especially women, aren't living their fullest potential. Brilliance Beyond Borders shares five indispensable traits that make an ocean of difference between immigrants who live as mere shadows of their truest potential and those who find purpose and fulfillment." -- inside front jacket flap.
