Harvard Book Store and WAM: Women, Action, & the Media welcome Ambassador MELANNE VERVEER and KIM K. AZZARELLI, co-founders of the global leadership forum Seneca Women, for a discussion of their book Fast Forward: How Women Can Achieve Power and Purpose. Joining them in conversation is vice chairman and global chief strategy and marketing officer at Bank of America ANNE M. FINUCANE.
Learn how some of the world’s most powerful women are using their growing economic power to create success and meaning in their lives while building a better world in Verveer and Azzarelli's book.
Sheryl Sandberg’s Lean In ignited a conversation about women and their careers, and resonated with millions of readers. Fast Forward, by two women leaders with experience and access throughout corporate America and around the world, takes the next step. Through interviews with a network of over fifty trailblazing women, it shows women how to accelerate their growing economic power and combine it with purpose to create success and meaning in their lives while building a better world.
“Fast Forward shows us how leaders at every level can use their power and purpose to help more and more women achieve their dreams for a better life.” —Hillary Rodham Clinton
“We are all capable of great things, even world-changing things, if we take inspiration from others and join together to get it done. We are witnessing an awakening to the justice of civil rights for women in our time. You can feel it is imminent, and it will change the world when it is accomplished. Here are stories of a few women who have dared to imagine the day, and worked to make it happen. Let them inspire you.” —Meryl Streep
