Female vision is simply that: how women see the world, and then act upon those observations. Believing that the content and outlines of these perceptions are both different from that of men and less valued than men's, Halgesen and Johnson elaborate on the concept and show what proper regard for female vision would contribute to the workplace. In the book's three sections they cover: a thorough definition; particular beneficial traits such as the capacity for taking in a broader picture, the ability to regard day to day life fruitfully, the talent for placing work in a bigger context; lastly, how women can put their vision to more effective use and how businesses can support them in this.
