MARY KAY : The Success Story of America’s Most Dynamic Businesswoman
Ash, Mary Kay
Harper & Row, 1987
200 pages

Ash begins by admitting that work was her life. She feared retirement. The book is her retirement review of the “beauty consultants” company she founded. She recounts taking her company public and twenty years later taking it private again in order to focus on the golden rule and open opportunities for women to own their own business units. Ash is a very quotable cheerleader for a cultural rather than a distinctly biblical Christian way of life and work. The book is a warm and personal tale with interesting vignettes from her family and work life. She engages the prevalent sexism and male bias in the business world, but does not offer much on faith implications for work.
