Reviews
Jude's book is the story of women doing well by doing good work for their organizations and communities. Jude's years of experience in management and as a leader add to the veracity of her book. A copy of this book should be on every businesswoman's desk! -- Dr. Edward Bergmark, Founder and Fifty years ago, The Feminine Mystique uncovered the hidden world of the unhappy 50s housewife.
As a data-driven businesswoman, I appreciated Dr. Miller Burke's solid, scientific research as the basis of her insights to the Millionaire Mystique. The stories in her book highlight that many wealthy working women are simply women who translated childhood adversity into the resiliency, focus, and drive that fueled their professional and personal success. This book should encourage all women to believe that yes... they can have it all. -- Dr. Archelle Georgiou, President Georgiou Consulting and KSTP-ABC Medical Consultant
Executive coach Burke sets out to learn what makes super successful women (in this case, self-made millionaires) different from the rest of us, and discovers that her subjects have much in common with each other: many grew up in middle-class or poor families and had to overcome some kind of childhood trauma. Burke shares insights from a number of these superstars in the hopes that their journeys will help others, with discussion of work styles, personality characteristics, relationship skills, mentors, leadership techniques, life detours, and the importance of resiliency. Readers will find sage advice for overcoming challenges, achieving goals, and maximizing opportunities. * Publishers Weekly *
