<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Indra Nooyi, the trailblazing former CEO of PepsiCo, offers ... insight and a call to action for how our society can really blend work and family--and advance women--in the twenty-first century"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><b>A New York Times Bestseller</b> <p/><b>An intimate and powerful memoir by the trailblazing former CEO of PepsiCo</b></b> <p/>For a dozen years as one of the world's most admired CEOs, Indra Nooyi redefined what it means to be an exceptional leader. The first woman of color and immigrant to run a Fortune 50 company -- and one of the foremost strategic thinkers of our time -- she transformed PepsiCo with a unique vision, a vigorous pursuit of excellence, and a deep sense of purpose. Now, in a rich memoir brimming with grace, grit, and good humor, <i>My Life in Full</i> offers a firsthand view of Nooyi's legendary career and the sacrifices it so often demanded. <p/>Nooyi takes us through the events that shaped her, from her childhood and early education in 1960s India, to the Yale School of Management, to her rise as a corporate consultant and strategist who soon ascended into the most senior executive ranks. The book offers an inside look at PepsiCo, and Nooyi's thinking as she steered the iconic American company toward healthier products and reinvented its environmental profile, despite resistance at every turn. <p/>For the first time and in raw detail, Nooyi also lays bare the difficulties that came with managing her demanding job with a growing family, and what she learned along the way. She makes a clear, actionable, urgent call for business and government to prioritize the care ecosystem, paid leave and work flexibility, and a convincing argument for how improving company and community support for young family builders will unleash the economy's full potential. <p/>Generous, authoritative, and grounded in lived experience, <i>My Life in Full</i> is the story of an extraordinary leader's life, a moving tribute to the relationships that created it, and a blueprint for 21st century prosperity.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Praise for <i>My Life in Full</i> </b> <p/>"With candor and good humor, Nooyi has written a wonderful book that brings her story to life, from her early years in India, surrounded by love and high expectations, to her determined efforts to succeed in the corporate world, all the while questioning the tradeoffs she had to make. She reveals just how our society continues to sacrifice talent instead of changing how we organize work to maximize everyone's potential to live full and productive lives. A must-read for working women and the men who work with us, love us, and support us." <br> <b>--Hillary Rodham Clinton</b> <p/> "Gritty, joyous, and visionary, Nooyi tells the story of an everyday person living an extraordinary life, leading beautifully and confidently from the front. A must-read for all."<br> <b>--Ursula M. Burns, former chair and CEO of Xerox, author of <i>Where You Are Is Not Who You Are</i></b> <p/> "'CEO' and 'care' do not usually go together, but for Indra Nooyi, they always have. Rather than offering us a list of policy prescriptions, she shows us what is possible when businesses care about family and families have time to care for one another."<br> <b>--Anne-Marie Slaughter, CEO of New America, author of <i>Unfinished Business</i></b> <p/> "We have so much to learn from Nooyi's remarkable story and wisdom on lifting up girls and women in the decades to come. She shares a great road map for anyone who aspires to merge social change with leading a large organization."<br> <b>--Matt Damon, actor, screenwriter, producer</b> <p/> "Nooyi's honesty, integrity, and humor shine through at every turn. Truly inspiring." <br> <b>--Mindy Kaling, actor, writer, producer, director</b> <p/> "An extraordinary window into the life, career, and family of a brilliant business strategist.
