BookTV March 12, 2011 Tucson Festival of Books Authors discussed their books about women in leadership. First, Dr. Connie Mariano talked about her book, The White House Doctor: My Patients Were Presidents - A Memoir. Then Gloria Feldt talked about her book, No Excuses: 9 Ways Women Can Change How We Think About Power. They then responded to questions from members of the audience. "Women of National Influence" was a panel at the Tucson Festival of Books in the Gallagher Theater of the Student Union on the campus of the University of Arizona.
No Excuses: 9 Ways Women Can Change How We Think about Power by Gloria Feldt http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/PanelonWom https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Gloria_Feldt http://gloriafeldt.com/ Some things I remember from the program: At the current rate of change women will achieve parity in 70 years. 15% of the opeds published are by women, who submit 15% of the opeds submitted. power over is contrasted with power to; domination versus leadership. My personal thought is that Wikipedia offers nearly total power to submit editorial changes and policy suggestions, or offer to assume significant responsibilities.
