"Of course, many women can benefit from it, and I would also recommend them to read the book, but even more so, I believe it is a book for men. What particularly appeals to me is that Carmen does not encourage a victim mentality... I hope her book makes a meaningful contribution to a challenge faced not only by women but by men as well."

"Carmen Breeveld encourages, challenges, and entices to action... The in-depth conversations with experts (including the perspective of one man) make the book a vibrant and diverse work, where one message is made clear without much fuss: Ladies, take care of each other. That is the central theme in *The Secret of the Old Boys Network*, where you learn how to shatter the glass ceiling."

*The Secret of the Old Boys Network* is a book for women like myself who aspire to advance in their careers. In terms of advice and inspiration, I can confidently say that Carmen has achieved her objective. While reading this book, the chapters that inspired me the most were: - Chapter 3: *Being Visible and Advancing to the Top* I applied the tips shared in this chapter, and within one year, I received two promotions.
