Executive coach Burke sets out to learn what makes super successful women (in this case, self-made millionaires) different from the rest of us, and discovers that her subjects have much in common with each other: many grew up in middle-class or poor families and had to overcome some kind of childhood trauma. Burke shares insights from a number of these superstars in the hopes that their journeys will help others, with discussion of work styles, personality characteristics, relationship skills, mentors, leadership techniques, life detours, and the importance of resiliency. Unfortunately, Burke considers the attainment of one million dollars to be the measure of professional success—this may be possible for business executives, doctors, and lawyers, but is an unreachable goal for women who work in less lucrative fields. Regardless, readers will find some sage advice for overcoming challenges, achieving goals, and maximizing opportunities. Agent: Linda Konner, Linda Konner Literary Agency. (Oct.)
