| Abstract
|
:
|
We work so hard to build our management and leadership skills in our careers, but we often feel like blithering idiots when faced with a child who won't cooperate, a husband who doesn't pay attention and a household that seems ready to collapse from the weight of our anxiety about chores. "Why can't I be as smart at home as I am at work?" I have often found myself wondering. These words--written by Carol Evans and excerpted from the Foreword of Mom-in-Chief --sum up why leadership expert Jamie Woolf wrote this book. They reflect the sentiments of countless professional women who feel great about.
