    Women With Attitude: Lessons for Career Management

     
    The stories of women who turned challenges into opportunities.
    4/14/2003
    Named for Madame Nicole-Barbe Clicquot, who took over the management of her husband's family champagne business in 1806 and cemented its place as a leading producer of champagne, the Veuve Clicquot Business Women of the Year celebrates the careers of outstanding businesswomen in the U.K. and Europe. Women With Attitude: Lessons for Career Management presents profiles of nineteen Veuve Clicquot winners. Keeping in mind that each life story is a "work in progress," the stories reveal remarkable examples of improvisation, chance, and ingenuity by women who have turned challenges into opportunity. From Anita Roddick's triumph with the Body Shop, a pioneering effort in the natural cosmetics market, to Patricia Vaz's transformation of British Telecom's payphones, this book offers insight into the unusual and remarkable career paths taken by some of the most powerful women in business.
