What to expect
Women face a double bind, forced to choose whether to be liked or respected, while neither one alone is enough to secure a seat at the table. It is up to organizations to change, but until then, what's an aspiring female leader to do?
You, the Leader tackles these obstacles and more as women chart their path to the top, from a lack of credit for their work to feeling invisible to unfair biases. This book will help you better understand how women can lead with authenticity and become valued leaders in their organizations.
This book will inspire you to: see yourself as a leader; command the respect you deserve; ensure you're visible for promotion; align yourself with the right supporters and mentors; break out of the authenticity paradox; and navigate power dynamics within your organization.
