Leading Ladies- Women who Inspire India
- by Sudha Menon
Leading Ladies is an inspirational book, that follows the journeys of some of India’s most admired women acheivers, who have made a difference to society.This book brings to life their individual stories and anecdotes that shall serve as a beacon for many of us.
It aims at showcasing their principles, personal and proffessional beliefs that, have guided them on their path of success. Their stories might seem like fairy tales, but each and every one of them fought over their personal weaknesses and braved all odds to reach where they are.
Amrita Patel, Kiran Mazumdar Shaw, Shubha Mudgal, Vinita Bali, Mallika Sarabhai are few of the women this book acknowledges.
As I read, through this book page after page the one thing that came to my mind was that, The most important thing for any woman is to follow her heart, and live her life with Integrity, Honour, Love And Commitment.
Every time you feel sorry for yourself, look around and see the challenges that other people have to face in their lives, every day. Then, you will feel less sorry for your situation and become more Sensitive towards others around you.
The Mind and Soul pages in the book are just as refreshing, giving a glimpse into the minds and souls of these women. One that specially caught my attention, is by -
Vinita Bali-“None of us exist as an island.We all need someone to reassure us that there is another way of looking at something.Our friends can be our mentors.My father was a trusted mentor and when he was alive ,i used to call him everyday for advice”.
Sudha Menon is a journalist with over two decades of experience in news and feature writing.She has worked with some of the prominent newspapers-The Hindu Business Line, The Independent.
This is a truly inspirational book-a must read for women and men alike. It brings to light the enormous potential of women in all walks of life.
The Cover of the book is just as attractive, and the Book-“ A must for every bedside table.”
