Watch Michelle in action
"Michelle ignited such a thought-provoking conversation at the World Economic Forum on the power of culture and inclusive leadership. It was fascinating to learn what qualities make an inclusive leader and how exhibiting those qualities benefits people of all genders and identities. Long after her talk was over, the discussion continued around the hallways and gathering spaces".
Kathleen Noreau, Head of Strategic Partnerships - Consumer, Health & Energy Industries World Economic Forum 
"Your years of research combined with real-life experience and your ability to present the subject by identifying the root of the problem gave our viewers the necessary tools to move forward and implement change as our project begins its third year."
Tracy Bowens, Outreach Communications, International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) 
"Michelle is not only extremely knowledgeable with her background and research on gender inequality, but she applies those insights specifically to the workplace and brings it to life. Michelle has a truly unique way of connecting with her audience. She makes the research come to life and provides real “a-ha” moments and practical takeaways that can be applied in any organization.”
Claudia Chan, CEO SHE Globl 
"Michelle is a speaker who sparks fires in her audiences around the issues she cares about. Her in-depth knowledge and insights, paired with her ability to clearly and vividly create the case for its importance, is a unique gift to the groups she speaks to. Our community still asks us about Michelle and where to access her talks and upcoming events.”
Jenn Lishansky, Founder of Be Social Change 
"Michelle understands that creating an inclusive and equitable workplace for everyone takes all of us. We are fortunate she is sharing her expertise and learnings and is bringing us along this journey to implement real change.”
Dr. Cindy Pace, Global Chief Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Officer, MetLife 
”Michelle King candidly shares her own personal experiences and decades of research to reveal the invisible barriers women face at work. Drawing on her exposure to companies that are structured to enable only men to succeed, she suggests that our denial towards gender inequality is hurting women, and challenges the idea that women can improve their way to
success. Bravely, Michelle offers the essential message that women are extraordinary as they are, and don’t need fixing - workplaces do.”
Tamara Mellon, OBE, Co-founder, Jimmy Choo 
”Michelle provides actions to take that do not succumb to the notion of 'fixing' women. Calling for accountability in what too often is a toxic environment is only as important as offering ways to bring about real change in that environment.”
Meredith Walker, Founder, Amy Poehler’s Smart Girls 
”Insightful and thoroughly engaging, Michelle King provides practical solutions for bringing about tangible and lasting change, as well as an impassioned argument for equity that moves beyond the current discourse on women in the workplace.”
Dr Nina Ansary, Author, Scholar, and UN Women Global Champion for Innovation 
”A visionary leader – changing the inclusion landscape.”
Billy Jean King Institute 
”Michelle King's podcast is like no other, highlighting the stories of women who are driving innovation across every sphere of life. Her interviews crackle with intelligence, wit and passion that enlightens as well as engages both women and men.''
Joanne Lipman, Former Editor, USA Today 
”So much about the world of work-from workplace culture to our definition of success-was created by men, and it's not working for women or indeed for men. And it's no surprise that women pay a disproportionately high price for their participation.
That's why it (this book) is so important. It's a passionate, practical roadmap for addressing inequality and finally making our workplaces work for women.
