International Women's Day

In an essay to mark International Women's Day, Dee Dee Myers, author of Why Women Should Rule the World is the former White House Press Secretary to Bill Clinton. She gives us her personal take on women and power. She also takes a wide-ranging view on the status, responsibilities and realities of women in power around the world.

Listen to the following podcast by the BBC you are going to find the point of view of different women like Christine Lagarde (the managing director of the International Monetary Fund), Janet Napolitano (the US Secretary of Homeland Security), Mary Robinson (the former president of Ireland), Nancy Pelosi (the first woman to serve as Speaker of the US House of Representatives) and Condoleezza Rice (Former US Secretary of State).
