How Indra Nooyi’s Advocacy Could Transform Every Workplace—and Every Home
Imagine a world where every parent can take paid leave, every child has access to quality care, and every elder is supported with dignity. This is the world Indra Nooyi envisions in her memoir—and it’s a world within reach. Drawing on her own experiences juggling work and family, Nooyi makes a compelling case for a care infrastructure that supports everyone. She argues that care is not just a women’s issue, but an economic imperative. Her proposals—paid leave, flexible work, affordable childcare, and eldercare—are grounded in research and global best practices.
Nooyi’s advocacy is deeply personal. She describes the exhaustion of doing it all, the guilt of missed moments, and the relief that comes when workplaces offer real support. Her vision is already influencing policymakers and business leaders, sparking a movement to put care at the center of the future of work. She insists that investing in care is not just good for families—it’s good for business, productivity, and society as a whole.
Nooyi’s memoir is more than a call to action—it’s a blueprint for a better world. She challenges us to imagine what’s possible when we put people first, and offers concrete steps for making it happen. For anyone who cares about the future of work, family, or society, this is essential reading.
