<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Women around the globe are being divinely called to change the world of business with a new kind of leadership - it's time for us to wake up and prepare for the challenge.</b> <p/> Why are we still seeing gender pay gaps and a lack of diversity in our workforces? We all know these systemic inequalities persist, so why haven't we fixed them yet? Dion Johnson has excelled in her field as a black woman in a white man's world; facially disfigured in a beauty-obsessed world; a devoted Christian in a secular world. She knows first-hand how unequal the system can be. <p/> In 2013, Dion, led by God, began challenging women leaders to respond to the call to show up, speak up and shake things the hell up in their industry. Since then, Dion has served passionately as a strategic ally supporting women to evolve, rise above leadership challenges, and be more influential in their role. In this book she offers a development framework for senior leaders who want to initiate hard change without sabotaging their health or self-esteem. <p/> Influential Woman has the power to spark a revolution in the way we lead and do business - to make the marketplace a force for love, justice and equality. We are influential women and now is our time to rise up and take action!<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>'An utterly compelling and distinctive call to arms to women everywhere.
