Behind every great woman . . . are other great women! In numbers never seen before, ambitious women are joining
forces in every major American city, forming salons, dinner
groups, and networking circles―and collaborating to achieve
clout and success. A new girls’ network is alive and set to
hyperdrive, and it’s upending all the old rules about how
power is allocated and business practiced. Stiletto Network is an up-close and personal account
of the groundswell of women’s groups changing the face of
business: the “Power Bitches”; “Brazen Hussies”;
“S.L.U.T.S.” (Successful Ladies Under Tremendous Stress);
and dozens more. It’s about what happens when bright, caring
women―from captains of industry to aspiring
entrepreneurs―come together to celebrate and unwind, debate
and compare notes. But it’s also about what happens when
they leave the table, when the talking stops and the action
starts. You’ll learn how they mine their collective wisdom
to realize their dreams or champion a cause, how they lift
up their friends and push them forward, ensuring each woman
gets what she needs―be it information, an introduction, a
recommendation, a partnership, or a landmark deal. You’ll read about women such as Kim Moses, who created the
most downloaded app in the history of Warner Bros. And
Jennifer Nason, who oversaw the largest high-yield bond
offering of 2010. And Mallun Yen, who joined the founding
team of RPX, one of the fastest-growing start-ups in
history, and steered it toward a $1 billion IPO. And Bonnie
McElveen-Hunter and Melanie Sabelhaus, who created the most
successful fundraising pilot in the history of the Red
Cross. All of these movers and shakers were propelled by
Stiletto Networks. Stiletto Network is the first book to shed light on this
groundbreaking movement. Sharing story after story of women
banding together to help other women, the book’s witty,
compassionate, and revealing narrative serves as both an
inspiring call to action and a fascinating inside look at
the new networks that are reshaping the business world.
