About the Author
Susan Wilson Solovic (St. Louis, MO) is president of Susan-Says and a respected consultant, columnist, and public speaker. An attorney by education, her career has taken her from television news broadcasting to an executive-level marketing position for a Fortune 500 company.
Reviews
Attorney and consultant Solovic thinks that many women employees still receive second-class treatment, and that it's up to individual women to change this situation by rising up the corporate ladder and getting paid what they're worth. Offering sound advice, she counsels her readers on learning how to, for example, negotiate effectively, dress appropriately and find mentors, essentially echoing women's success books of the past 20 years.

Whose bright idea was it to include "Girls'" in the title of this book? Packaging advice on how women should be more assertive and direct under a cutesy title like this is contradictory and just plain irritating. Despite the title, Solovic does manage to share a lot of good tips that she learned during her varied work experience as a lawyer, senior-level marketing maven, consultant, speak- er, and president of Susan-Says. She includes suggestions on communicating effectively, finding and using a mentor, creating a charismatic presence, planning out a career, achieving work/life balance, and leveraging women's power to effect political and social change. A lot of what Solovic includes here has been said before women's magazines are full of advice on these topics, and Deborah Tannen and John Gray have already played off of the communication angle but this book brings that advice together into one readable volume. Sure to circulate in just about any public library.
