New York Times Bestseller
Following the success of Lean In and Why Women Should Rule the World, the authors of the bestselling Womenomics provide an informative and practical guide to understanding the importance of confidence—and learning how to achieve it—for women of all ages and at all stages of their career.
Working women today are better educated and more well qualified than ever before. Yet men still predominate in the corporate world. In The Confidence Code, Claire Shipman and Katty Kay argue that the key reason is confidence.
Combining cutting-edge research in genetics, gender, behavior, and cognition—with examples from their own lives and those of other successful women in politics, media, and business—Kay and Shipman go beyond admonishing women to "lean in."Instead, they offer the inspiration and practical advice women need to close the gap and achieve the careers they want and deserve.

“With an obvious command of her
craft, Sandy Rustin’s performance is notable not only for the easy-to-hear
sweetness of her voice but also for her keen ability to sound more assertive
when the authors have an important point to make. Her approach commands respect
and makes this timely book sound as empowering as it is enlightening. With its
colorful stories of women in a variety of professional fields, this is a
smoothly written and helpful examination of how pervasive self-doubt is among
women, especially in the subtle ways they overthink performance situations,
fear conflict and disapproval, and have trouble recovering from defeat and
failure.”
