Summary

Why are men still winning at work?
If women have equal leadership ability, why are they so under-represented at the top in business and society?
Why are we still living in a man's world? And why do we accept it?
In this provocative book, Gill Whitty-Collins looks beyond the facts and figures on gender bias and uncovers the invisible discrimination that continues to sabotage us in the workplace and limits our shared success. Addressing both men and women and pulling no punches, she sets out the psychology of gender diversity from the perspective of real personal experience and shares her powerful insights on how to tackle the gender equality issue.
'This book tells the inconvenient truth about the gender inequality issue, providing some real deep insights into what truly gets in the way of driving diversity - even in companies that are trying to do the right thing. It may be uncomfortable reading for some but crucial for driving the needed change to create a long-term advantage.' - Paul Polman, Founder & Chair, Imagine and Ex CEO, Unilever

The six basic needs of Victoria are:   
 
 
 
 Simplicity vs. Complexity: Is the need to simplify so a foundation is built to venture into new challenges? 
 Adventure: Every Victoria has an urge for adventure. It makes her tick. The most significant of adventures is to be a visionary in this world. 
 Significance: What is the point when what she stands for does not mean anything or will eventually become obsolete? 
 Passion: She shares a passion for her customer, product, service, and all the people that she interacts with on a daily basis. 
 Growth: If she does not GROW, she DIES! 
 Contribution: This is the dream of being part of the infinite game of sharing and being able to pass on what she stands for to the world. In other words, to multiply! 
 
 
Learning to recognize the balance of Victoria's needs can unlock the path to the successful implementation of any initiative within your company.    
 
Through many practical examples based on Stefan's 25 years of experience as both an executive and an entrepreneur, he explains how to balance Victoria's needs and how anybody can do it.    
 
The book also contains 7 actual cases and provides valuable insight into finding the right balance of Victoria's needs. Many of you will most certainly recognize several of these situations and will be able to learn from the mistakes and the successes.
