Just dropping this off. Hopefully will have time to be back later today and update as to what's been going on 'round these parts over the last few days. Hopefully.


Beyond Superwoman: 25 Top CEOs Show Us How To Get a Life is based on candid interviews Karin Strasser Kaufman and Peggy Downes Baskin conducted with 25 top Silicon Valley executives, including Donna Dubinsky, founder of Palm Pilot; Kathy Levinson, president of E*Trade; M.R.C. Greenwood, chancellor of University of California, Santa Cruz; Kathleen Sullivan, dean of Stanford Law School; Susan Hammer, former mayor of San Jose; Jackie Speier, California State senator; and Ann Livermore, vice-president of Hewlett-Packard.

Strasser Kauffman and Downes Baskin discovered that without exception, the Silicon Valley CEOs did not attempt to achieve a balance between their personal and professional lives. Instead, they sequenced their lives, concentrating on doing one thing at a time, and doing it well.


The authors are speaking on campus next week, and I'm thinking about going. If nothing else I may try to pick up a copy of their book.

I heard them speak (or at least one of them... can't remember which) at a conference this past fall and it was really interesting. I would definitely recommend going if you can.
