Women's greatest strengths in the workplace are also their most underestimated.

That’s what CNBC senior media & tech reporter Julia Boorstin explains in her new book, "When Women Lead."

Boorstin sat with sixty powerhouse female CEOs and leaders. In the book, she weaves their stories together with research on the most effective strategies women CEOs deploy at work. She provides invaluable lessons for anyone in the workplace.

In this conversation, Boorstin explains how women like Katrina Lake, Lena Waithe and Gwyneth Paltrow not only rose to success but empower — and listen — to the people they lead. She breaks down the reasons empathy, gratitude and vulnerability can be superpowers for women leaders. And she shares key insight on confidence, pitching to investors and how women can unlock their leadership potential.

In 2012, Boorstin founded the CNBC Disruptor 50, an annual list of 50 forward-thinking private companies that inspire change. For years she’s followed the work of women leaders in her role at CNBC and a former reporter for Fortune Magazine.
