BOOK CLUB

A quarterly gathering of thoughtful, ambitious women coming together to explore books that inspire professional growth, leadership, and personal development.

We read across a range of nonfiction genres — from business and mindset to biographies and big ideas — and meet to share insights, reflect on key takeaways, and connect in meaningful conversation.

Invisible Women: Data Bias in a World Designed for Men - by Caroline Criado Perez

"This book is an eye-opener! it shows how women have been left out of all conversations, from little things in daily life to work life to public life; showing why it's so important to always have women at the table." - Maggie Nielsen, WIFS-KC Board Member

The Let Them Theory - by Mel Robbins

The Confidence Code

- by Katty Kay & Claire Shipman

"This book is a reread for me on an annual basis. Fantastic information on the science of why women may have less confidence than men; why that’s so important in how it impacts our careers and success, but more importantly, how to combat it!" - Leslie Schultz, Past President

Start More Than You Can Finish

- by Becky Blades

"What a fun and creative permission slip to give yourself grace when your to-do-list seems to be more than you can get done. As a lifelong Startist, I appreciate Becky's humor and creative approach. This book is an easy read with actionable tips to keep your Big Ideas from bogging you down." - Melissa Dailey-Newman, Chapter President

The Year of Yes - by Shonda Rhimes
