Article Abstract:

Moe Grzelakowski, a top-ranking woman at Bell Laboratories, Motorola, and Dell believes that motherhood is a better leadership training program that could be artificially devised. She thinks that there's a development process that can help a woman strike the ideal balance of becoming a mother as they learn how to blend toughness with support when raising their children, and they are trained in patience, compassion, and negotiating skills, and cultivate flexibility, an attribute that makes them excellent situational leaders.
