"Finally, a scientific explanation of why men and women behave differently in the workplace, and practical advice for leveraging these differences to improve business performance. LEADERSHIP AND THE SEXES makes a sound case for redefining our notions of what it takes to be a successful executive – companies seeking to retain top talent would be wise to pay close attention to this book."

Yezdi Pavri, Managing Partner, Deloitte & Touche

"LEADERSHIP AND THE SEXES is an exciting new book by gender team Michael Gurian and Barbara Annis. It offers critical insight into the minefield of gender relationships in the workplace, and is a tool I have been missing. Corporate America needs the knowledge this new book gives us. I can’t wait to start implementing the authors’ ideas.

Pernille Lopez, President of IKEA North America

"Much of what we have learned thus far about marketing to and leading men and women is based on observing cultural influences.  LEADERSHIP AND THE SEXES brings a scientific basis that simply takes everyone's understanding to a whole new level.  The opportunity this understanding brings to be more effective is a competitive advantage both in and outside our company."

Jim Weber, President and CEO, Brooks Sports
