and the book's co-author claire shipman is joining me now. the day, the makeup room? we'll have a few secrets. between us on that. >> we'll keep that quiet. >> it's really good to sea you. i'm so glad to have you on. you did some great work here. you met with many women in positions of power. many seem to lack a certain boldness, as you put it. what are women doing wrong? >> it's really interesting. it's not so much -- i want to say women are doing anything wrong, it's just we were really struck by how many quite successful women do seem to lack confidence that is often subtle in ways. for example, here's one of the best examples we found. hullet packard did a study and it's since been replicated elsewhere that women will tend to apply for promotions when we feel we have roughly 100% of qualifications for the job. men will do it at 60%. so imagine what that sort of self-perception, self-judgment does over the course of a career. one other study we found fascinating, men and women take the same test, they score the same, but when asked how the

claire shipman has written a book, "the confidence code" about it all. >> reporter: does it seem thatew research suggest a big chunk of our confidence, some say up to 50%, comes straight from our dna. i was busy researching the origins of confidence and i set out to learn my genetic blueprint. one saliva test and the help of a doctor, i learned in terms of the key genes which contribute to confidence, i come up short. i'm more prone to anxiety than resilience and more of a worrier than a warrior. that's one part after larger confidence equation. hormones like testosterone give men a boost. and the parts of our brain matter. women rely more heavy on a section called worry wart, for example, but even if you are a worrier like i am, you can overcome the cards you were dealt at birth. >> we have potential to rewire our brains. in the brain, practice doesn't make perfect. practice makes permanence. >> reporter: it's what scientists brain plasticity. we can create more confident pathways in our brain with better habits. some of the best, especially for women, embrace failure. the experience

claire shipman is a veteran network news correspondent now with abc, and after interviewing some of thepowerful and most successful women in the world and hearing them reveal their own insecurities, she did what good reporters do and dug deeper. the result is the confidence code, and the research has important implications for men and women. claire, thanks for joining us. >> my pleasure. thanks for having me. >> so your book certainly really speaks to me. this is something i struggle with a lot, and was somewhat comforted to learn from your book that women like christine, the head of the imf also struggles with this. you have a quote where she says i would often get nervous about presentations or speaking, and there were moments when i had to screw up my courage to raise my hand or make a point rather than hanging back. this is women at all levels of success that have had struggles with their own confidence, but what you write in the book is this isn't just some sort of internal struggle. your lack of confidence can really impact what you can do in the world and what you can do in your

so now journalist claire shipman and katty kay have a new theory of what is holding women back.hat seems to be a simple truth -- women suffer from an acute lack of confidence. they write, "compared with men, women don't consider themselves as ready for promotions, they predict they'll do worse on tests, and they general le underestimate their abilities. a growing body of evidence shows just how devastating this lack of confidence can be." which also begs the question about the structural and cultural issues that teach and reinforce a lack of confidence. consider the conversation about paycheck fairness. blocked by conservatives in congress sending a message that women don't deserve equal pay. when fx news hosts blamed the ills of society on women with children out of wedlock. even at the time when the most buzzed about potential presidential candidates are both women we still have a ways to go to close the confidence gap. my panel is back with me and what are your thoughts on this premise, are we suffering from a lack of confidence? >> i think it's been well documented this impo

she wrote the book with abc news correspondent claire shipman who cancelled on us. is married to white house spokesman jay carney. you are a british subject, right? >> that's right, yeah. >> when you -- >> -- with four american children though. >> so you have four american children who are citizens because they are born here. >> yep. >> how do you process the war on women, the sandra fluke stuff, how you do you process all of that? is that a legitimate thing? any party that ignores the voters 53% of the electorate does so at their peril. women are too smart to be used as political slogans, we want results are. if you look, for example, in congress it's women members of house and the senate who are more inclined to cross party lines to get things done. and so, i think women are, you know, very practical, very smart. they want results. they don't necessarily want slogans and any party that ignores them does so at their peril. >> i don't think any party is ignoring them any party in the nancy pelosi, barbara boxer some others have told women hey, you are getting shafte

with us now to talk about it, claire shipman along with katty kay is the author of "the confidence codeanna coles and of course nicole is still with us. we've been joking about it, but mika has spoken to women and the first thing she says all the time is don't say you're sorry. you're not sorry. have the confidence to go with what you believe in. talk about the confidence code. >> that's where the idea of writing this book came from. we would interview all these women around the country in politics, business, the military. women you expected to be brimming with confidence. we kept coming across phrases like, i was just in the right place at the right time. actually what we found was wells of self-doubt among women. so we started to look into the research to see if there was such a thing as a confidence gap between men and women. and the statistics are extraordinary. we talked about this earlier the the program. men overestimate their abilities by 30% on average. women tend to underestimate their abilities. there was a study in the uk asking young graduate students what do you deserve to
