Síntesis:
Appointed the chief executive officer of the Xerox Corporation in 2009, Burns was the first Black female to hold the position at a Fortune 500 company. Here she writes about her journey from tenement housing to the highest echelons of the corporate world, crediting her rise to her single mother. Burns writes about the limitations she faced, as well as the challenges and reality of the corporate world. The result is a remarkable look inside the C-suites through the eyes of someone who puts humanity over greed, and justice over power. No matter your circumstances, hard work and leadership can change your life--and the world. -- Adapted from book jacket.
