"Leadership Strategies for Women provides lessons from history in the unexpected context of gender diversity. Nicely written and original, the book is a powerful example of how looking back can help us moving forward." Frank Uit de Weerd, VP HR Innovation, R&D, Royal Dutch / Shell."From a historic perspective Dr. Paul Vanderbroeck wrote a most interesting book on female leadership. Thoughtful and original !"Lucas van Wees, VP Human Resources Commercial & Global at KLM. "This is a remarkable book. Dr. Paul Vanderbroeck, both an accomplished historian and a leadership development specialist, analyses four famous queens in terms of what we can learn from them about leadership best practices. The results are remarkable - history is teaching us a lot - relevant and current! The book does not only shed important light on leadership strategies for women, but on what is effective leadership in general. Chapeau!"Peter Lorange, leadership scholar and former Dean of IMD business school
