Overview

Here's a kicker: Women's representation in the corporate world is not improving in leaps and bounds. Not even in leaps or bounds. It actually hasn't improved much at all in the last few years. In 2018, women made up 48% of entry-level employees, but only 38% of managers, 34% of senior managers or directors, 29% of VPs, 23% of SVPs, and just 22% of C-suite executives. For every 100 men promoted to manager-level roles, only 79 women moved up into similar roles. The numbers are even more abysmal for women of color, who make up only 17% of entry-level roles and 4% of C-suite positions. Women tend to be inherently cautious, to the point of overthinking their every move. This may help them stay safer than their male counterparts, but it also keeps them stuck in the action-first, fake-it-til-you-make-it ethos celebrated in the tech world shaking up the workforce today. What if women embraced the startup spirit? What if they had the confidence to take chances, even if they knew they may fail first? With lessons learned from a wide range of women who faced down fears, roadblocks, and failures to reinvent themselves, the author's invaluable resource teaches women how to: - Boost their confidence - Sell their story - Capitalize on their skills and expand them - Nurture their network - Brand themselves--without bragging - Reposition themselves for reentering the workforce - And much more! By taking the disruptive methods, this book seeks to empower women in the workforce, showing them how to lean into their strengths, increase confidence, and make their impact known loud and clear.
