"Why doesn't anyone ever talk about this topic in this way?"
Male brains and female brains function differently! They have different responses to decision-making, to risk-taking, different definitions of good leadership, different perceptions of hierarchy and its role in workplace dynamics. For most of human history, men designed and controlled corporate structures and workplace dynamics.
And when you build a system from the ground up, you are naturally going to build it to reward your behavior, your instincts, your leadership style. This is why women, who bring so much value into the workforce, are still paid less, under-rewarded and limited in their advancement, even when achieving greater results.
It's not the "mommy-track" that's holding them back! It's that the behavior most highly rewarded in corporate environments not only goes against their instincts, but also goes against what gets the best outcomes for the organization!
This book takes an honest, unapologetic approach to examining how entrenched systems of networking, negotiation and advancement work against "female brains," and how women can compete on a playing field designed by men to reward their own achievements.
It covers how to:Make decisions quickly and proceed confidently, even with incomplete informationAnnounce that what you're about to say has value, every time you speak upOwn your place in the hierarchy, and stop doing the kinds of "work favors" that don't advance your careerMentor, sponsor and amplify other women, and much more...
Companies will also discover why they keep losing top female performers and what they must do to recruit, reward and - most importantly - retain them.
This eye-opening book tackles a difficult subject with candor, humor and confidence - and draws the roadmap for when each of those traits helps women get ahead in the workplace.
