Both these books focus on the successes of African American women in the corporate world. Broussard's (The Black Woman's Guide to Financial Independence, LJ 1/96) guide is a workshop/workbook for would-be entrepreneurs, with stories and advice from women who have already made it. To get from dream to reality, she maps the necessary route to success, listing ideal start-up businesses, showing how to set goals, and proceeding with the nuts and bolts of the entire process. Broussard concludes by offering strategies and tips on how sister CEOs can manage and market their businesses. A valuable resource, this is highly recommended for most libraries. On the other hand, like Patricia Reid-Merrit in Sister Power (LJ 8/96), Ehrhart-Morrison, former director-manager of operations at the Los Angeles Convention Center, concentrates primarily on those women who have already made their mark in their respective fields. She interviews 32 of these successes, beginning with their roots, their education, and their triumphs over racism and sexism. She then pursues their career strategies and essential connections to family and spirituality. This makes for lackluster reading but could be helpful to aspiring young businesswomen.
