My Life as a Corporate Goddess BookcoverGreetings Everyone!

Ever since we launched the website I’ve had a lot of women ask what inspired me to write this book. So, I thought that a good way to start was at the beginning, when I received a call from the heart.

Best Wishes and send this to at least three heartfelt friends,
Jane Rosen
 

A Call from the Heart
Inspiring laughter
One of the most important things I’ve learned in life is that a good sense of humor can get you through. If you are a woman working in corporate America you know exactly what I mean. In those hallowed hallways of never-ending gray cubicles, a good laugh is a rare and precious commodity.

My sense of humor was tested time and time again throughout my career in film and television production, marketing and public relations. Face it, when you are consistently the only woman in the room, you better find the humor.

One night, a few years ago, I was burning the midnight oil developing the marketing plan for my new business. I sat in front of my computer, reflecting on my life and my work, when some really funny stuff just started pouring out of me. It was like a hilarious call from the heart, and the good news is that I was able to pick-up. I wrote and laughed for hours that night and began to share bits of it with friends. Those dear friends have cheered me on, and what began as a funny reflection on women in the corporate world grew deeper as women entrusted me with their stories and experiences.

So, there you have it: My Life as a Corporate Goddess was born late one night. It came to me as a call from the heart, to inspire laughter, empathy and insight for women. It is my joyful gift to women who work, lead and celebrate the Goddess within themselves and their sisters around them.

Goddess Story

Meet one of the corporate goddesses featured in the book
Janet Hanson – Goddess of Networking
After a 14-year brilliant career with Goldman Sachs, and notably, the first woman in the firms’ history to become a sales manager, Janet Hanson bravely went out on her own. She founded Milestone Capital Management in 1994, the only women-owned investment adviser in the United States to specialize exclusively in institutional liquidity management.

And then, in 1999 Janet fulfilled her dream and founded 85 Broads, a totally unique, global network that, as of this writing, numbers 7000 current and former Goldman Sachs professional women. A creative play on the Wall Street address for Goldman Sachs located at 85 Broad Street, 85 Broads has become a model for other business alumni networks, and was cited for its “best practices” by Catalyst.

Check out her new book, More Than 85 Broads: The Power of Building a Network to Inspire and Change Women's Lives and Careers at Amazon.com.

Some women enter the world as a Goddess, some grow to become a Goddess, and others remain clueless for a lifetime.

 
   

May you find laughter in your day and fun in the dysfunction.
