    Buch (Taschenbuch)

    Warum Gleichberechtigung zu Wirtschaftswachstum führt ...

    ... wird und hier sehr anschaulich erklärt. Ein Buch, das man/frau so manchem männlichen Manager - und natürlich Politikern - schenken sollte, die noch immer nicht wissen, welche Vorteile Gender Strategien bringen - auch ökonomisch!
