Femonomics
Femonomics is a data-driven guide to empower women to make choices that will reclaim their time, energy and joy, written by an economics professor at Wharton. This is Lean In, 2.0.
A groundbreaking book. A brilliant, evidence-based roadmap for navigating the unique challenges faced by women.' β EVE RODSKY
A passionate, provocative case for changes to boost women's earning power and well-being... filled with insights to help men better understand and support the women in their lives.' β ADAM GRANT
It's not in your head. It's in the data.
To be a woman today is to be overwhelmed from every angle. The data proves that the odds are still stacked against us β biologically, culturally, economically. But that same data can empower us to make choices that will reclaim our time, energy, and help us find joy.
In Femonomics, economist Corinne Low explodes the myths about what makes women successful and happy, such as:
- What if flexible working isn't the answer, and we actually need more boundaries?
- What if the gender happiness gap was as important as the gender pay gap?
- What if you had the power to prioritise things you actually value, rather than the things that other people value?
- What if being more 'successful' actually meant putting family before work?
Femonomics gives you the tools to design the life you want. It will teach you how to turn your time into money, how to work out what you value, how to invest in the right partner, how to plan your career at every stage, how to organise your family life β and ultimately how to make the world work for you.
