Empowering Women...As I See

Today, the situation of women in our country has undergone a vast change, though for many it remains the same. Yet, there are a lot of choices available and each choice is filled with potential conflicts -- professional demands and expectations, home responsibilities, children''s needs, family relationships, time constraints, physical capabilities, financial status, social expectations, job insecurities, and many more. How do women handle these competing demands, full of contradictions and conflicts? How do they learn to deal with conflict management? Who teaches them? What kind of solutions do they move towards? How much time do they take to learn? and do they? In her usual bold, candid and simple style Kiran Bedi presents her deep insights about issues that affect women and presents some of her innovative ideas on what needs to be done by the government, the leaders, the society and the individuals.
