Women Kind is a reminder that brilliant things happen when smart women get fed up.

Wage inequality between men and women seems one of the intractables of our age. Women are told they need to back themselves more, stop marginalising themselves, negotiate better, speak up, support each other, strike a balance between work and home. This searing book argues that insisting that women fix themselves won't fix the system, the system built by men.

The book explores the challenges faced by women in leadership roles in modern Australia, highlighting the struggle to balance personal and professional life. It discusses the rarity of women in high-level positions, such as on boards or leading major companies, and critiques the persistent myths that hinder progress toward gender equality in the workplace. Catherine Fox identifies seven prevalent myths that contribute to the ongoing disparities in pay and representation, aiming to provoke thought and inspire change in societal attitudes.
