'The promise of Gerzema and D'Antonio's vision is compelling. Time alone will tell what choices today's young men and women will make, and the extent to which corporate culture and structures will be transformed as a result' (Financial Times, May 2013), 'The promise of Gerzema and D'Antonio's vision is compelling. Time alone will tell what choices today's young men and women will make, and the extent to which corporate culture and structures will be transformed as a result' (Financial Times, May 2013) 'The authors show how feminine traits are ascending-and bringing success to people and organizations around the world. By nurturing, listening, collaborating and sharing, women and men are solving problems, finding profits, and redefining success in every realm' (Public Net, June 2013), "Captivating... a fascinating case study of human nature, this book provides insight into future world leaders." --Publishers Weekly "With a wealth of data and even richer stories from around the world, The Athena Doctrine offers convincing proof that the future requires us to embrace traits and values traditionally linked to women. Leave it to two fathers of daughters to show us how men and women alike are using empathy and collaboration to solve problems big and small. If you care about leadership, creativity, and the world of tomorrow, you must read this book." --Arianna Huffington, president and editor-in-chief, The Huffington Post " The Athena Doctrine is a powerful book. Extraordinary research. Great story telling. A message both timely and of monumental importance." --Tom Peters, leadership guru and bestselling author, In Search of Excellence "Goddess of both craft and wisdom, patron of Odysseus, and inspiration for legions of smart girls, Athena is an icon for our times. The Athena Doctrine offers a gender-neutral approach to embracing a set of values that underpin a new generation of innovation based on connection and creativity. It is an optimistic and energizing book." --Anne-Marie Slaughter, professor of politics and international affairs, Princeton University; former director of policy planning, U.S. Department of State " The Athena Doctrine offers more than ample evidence of the rebalance needed in global leadership. Painstakingly researched and documented, with interviews of amazing people all over the world, the ideas in this book will influence the leaders of tomorrow and, more importantly, make the case for more women leaders." --Pat Mitchell, president and CEO, the Paley Center for Media; curator, TEDxWomen "Rich in data and stories from around the world, this fresh analysis will certainly provoke healthy debate in the workplace and hopefully smash through a few glass ceilings." --Tina Brown, Editor-in-Chief, Daily Beast and Newsweek "...this is a book for everyone, and I have no doubt that your life and your work will be enriched by reading it." --Jack Covert, 800-CEORead

Synopsis
"We are in a new world with many old minds, and the task is to adapt yourself. A modern leader is here to serve." Interview with Shimon Peres , president of the State of Israel, Jerusalem, 2012 "With a wealth of data and even richer stories from around the world, The Athena Doctrine offers convincing proof that the future requires us to embrace traits and values traditionally linked to women. Leave it to two fathers of daughters to show us how men and women alike are using empathy and collaboration to solve problems big and small. If you care about leadership, creativity, and the world of tomorrow, you must read this book." Arianna Huffington , president and editor-in-chief, The Huffington Post " The Athena Doctrine is a powerful book. Extraordinary research. Great story telling.

Pat Mitchell , president and CEO, the Paley Center for Media; curator, TEDxWomen, New York Times Bestseller How feminine values can solve our toughest problems and build a more prosperous future Among 64,000 people surveyed in thirteen nations, two thirds feel the world would be a better place if men thought more like women., New York Times Bestseller How feminine values can solve our toughest problems and build a more prosperous future Among 64,000 people surveyed in thirteen nations, two thirds feel the world would be a better place if men thought more like women. This marks a global trend away from the winner-takes-all, masculine approach to getting things done. Drawing from interviews at innovative organizations in eighteen nations and at Fortune 500 boardrooms, the authors reveal how men and women alike are recognizing significant value in traits commonly associated with women, such as nurturing, cooperation, communication, and sharing. The Athena Doctrine shows why femininity is the operating system of 21st century prosperity. Advocates a new way to solve today's toughest problems in business, education, government, and more Based on a landmark survey and results from Young & Rubicam's respected Brand Asset Valuator's global survey, as well as on-the-ground interviews in 18 countries From acclaimed social theorist, consumer expert, and bestselling author, John Gerzema, and award-winning author, Michael D'Antonio Brought to life through real world examples and backed by rigorous data, The Athena Doctrine shows how feminine traits are ascending--and bringing success to people and organizations around the world. By nurturing, listening, collaborating and sharing, women and men are solving problems, finding profits, and redefining success in every realm.
