Powerchicks: How Women Will Dominate America

This book chronicles,(illustrated with the stories of the well-known and the not-so-well-known), the impact of women in and on a variety of careers/professions over the past several decades. I believe it is truly the most fascinating book to come along in awhile and it is a wonderful book to be able to discuss.Wonderfully upbeat, women will find encouragement and reassurance. It all makes sense of what we've been living - and gives a pretty good road map of what works and what wastes career time. Men - of all types and attitudes - will also find it fascinating reading. Thankfully, most will smile and be encouraged that the rest of the world understands what they have all along. They'll be the ones saying - "Let me tell you about this Power Chick I work with." I gave this book to my dad for Christmas. It led to many a great conversation. My mom, a very happy and traditional homemaker, saw it as a window into my life. And my younger sister read it while on a job hunting trip. It proved a terrific guide and buildup for confronting job interviews and head hunters. This book should be everyone's gift book of the year. You'll know they read it, because they'll want to talk with you about it.

Matt Towery has been able to compile a diversified group of real woman who have risen to powerful positions in almost every industry. This book tells their story in an factual way from their own point of view of how they rose to power.It is very evident to see that there is a pattern that most of the women followed that is different than what men in similar positions seem to follow.This book is a good guide for men to better understand woman in business as well as showcasing some very powerful people.As a producer in television and film, I definately see Power Chicks has a future in other forms of the media as well in bringing these stories to the public.I'm happy that I had the chance to read an advance copy and look forward to seeing this book rise to the top of the charts.Randy Peskin Executive Producer

I fortunately had an opportunity to see an advance galley copy of POWER CHICKS.Matt Towery has taken actual statements from some of the top ranking women in a variety of industries and in a clear, concise manner, organized their comments into an interesting account of their successes, featuring when, where, why and how they achieved their power. This is not a mans point of view, but an authors recap and analysis of some of the common factors shared by those that have achieved. Towery has hit on a subject that is timely and lends itself to not only follow up features, but is a perfect subject for other forms of media as well.To Matt Towery, congradulations on a job well done!John RatzenbergerActor, Director, ProducerPresident, FIDDLERS BAY ENTERTAINMEMT
