Summary

For women, the path to becoming a successful business leader is filled with systemic barriers. But some of the most innovative companies are led by women — Stitch Fix, Feeding America, and Ellevest, just to name a few. How do these women do it, and what can we learn from them? CNBC reporter Julia Boorstin looked at the data and interviewed more than 60 female executives on what sets them apart. We talk with her about why female leaders are often better at expressing empathy, navigating stressful situations, instilling their companies with purpose, and more. In Mailbag, we answer questions about purchasing I-bonds and tackling wealth inequality. In Thrive, everything you need to know about cover letters. Learn more about your ad choices.
