Leap In!

I just love the article below by Dr. Candida Brush, professor at Babson College.  It's about Cheryl Sandberg's new expression, or book, if you will, "Lean In," which inspires women leaders to move forward in their careers, pursue opportunities and actively accept responsibilities.

Dr. Brush challenges the theory of "leaning in" for women in the workforce by saying it may not be enough for women entrepreneurs.  She goes on further to say:

In fact, they need to “leap in."  It is impossible to be an entrepreneur by leaning- you have to commit, take risks and take action.

Entrepreneurship At Its Best

Whether in theory or in practice, entrepreneurship is the way to go. Read about one of my favorite colleges and favorite professors -- and how they are, together, pioneering research in women's entrepreneurship. From all us who connect through Escape From Corporate America ... congratulations Professor Brush!

Separately and from the book "Women Who Changed The World:"
