Description
Powerful words from groundbreakers like Marie Curie and Susan B. Anthony have moved and motivated us for generations. Today, many more women and girls are leading the way across all walks of life. From the authors of the breakout inspirational book Beautifully Said comes Grit & Grace, a showcase of the brilliant minds, innovative careers, and fascinating backstories of female leaders. You'll find world-famous and less-visible changemakers, including Nobel winners, CEOs and pop stars...plus, an artisan ice cream maker, police chief, bishop, orchestra conductor and cruise ship captain.
Grit & Grace is the perfect companion for dreaming up new possibilities and translating vision into action. It's stylishly designed so readers can creatively share what inspires them. Sourced quotations are paired with the uncommon stories of a host of remarkable women, readying today's leaders to imagine new futures. The book makes a meaningful gift for sisters, daughters, friends, teammates, teachers, colleagues, newly minted grads, and the other dreamers and doers in your life.
