Hanging by a Thread: Survival Guide for Blacks in Corporate America

Hanging By a Thread is a hard hitting survival guide designed to help blacks navigate the maze of career threatening politics in corporate America. Corporate blacks are one of the most suffering groups but get the least amount of sympathy. The lack of sympathy stems from society's view that these individuals are privileged to have their jobs, houses, and status. Their plight is seldom highlighted in contemporary reading material. Short of turning to each other for emotional support, blacks are hard pressed to find a no-nonsense roadmap for surviving corporate America. This book is written in contemporary language that makes for an easy read.
