Hardback. Condition: Very Good. Be nice, but not too nice. Be successful, but not too successful. Just be likeable. Whatever that means?Women are stuck in an impossible bind. At work, strong women are criticized for being cold, and warm women are seen as pushovers. An award-winning journalist examines this fundamental paradox and empowers readers to let go of old rules and reimagine leadership rather than reinventing themselves.Consider that even competent women must appear likeable to successfully negotiate a salary, ask for a promotion, or take credit for a job well done?and that studies show these actions usually make them less likeable. And this minefield is doubly loaded when likeability intersects with race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and parental status.Relying on extensive research and interviews, and carefully examined personal experience, The Likeability Trap delivers an essential examination of the pressure put on women to be amiable at work, home, and in the public sphere, and explores the price women pay for internalizing those demands. Rather than advising readers to make themselves likeable, Menendez empowers them to examine how they perceive themselves and others and explores how the concept of likeability is riddled with cultural biases. Our demands for likeability, she argues, hinder everyone?s progress and power.Inspiring, thoughtful and often funny, The Likeability Trap proposes surprising, practical solutions for confronting the cultural patterns holding us back, encourages us to value unique talents and styles instead of muting them, and to remember that while likeability is part of the game, it will not break you.This evidence-based guide reveals the hidden rules of the workplace and offers a new framework for success:The Goldilocks Conundrum: Explore why strong women are seen as cold and warm women are dismissed as pushovers?and how to navigate this no-win situation.The Success Penalty: Unpack the paradox that the more successful a woman becomes, the less liked she is, and learn strategies to advocate for yourself without apology.Authenticity at Work: Learn to stop contorting yourself to meet others? expectations and lead in a style that is true to who you are.Intersectionality Matters: A crucial look at how the likeability trap is compounded by race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and parental status, with insights for a truly inclusive workplace.…

Hardback. Condition: Very Good. A missing mother, a mysterious parcel of old letters, and a young woman in search of her roots reveal an astonishing story of a woman's affair with Che Guevara and an intimate portrait of revolutionary Cuba.In her brilliant debut novel, Ana Menndez uses her gift for storytelling to paint a sweet but sad, hopeful but despairing, serene and sometimes terror-filled portrait of Cuba in the time of revolution, and Cubans in exile then and now. The memories of an elderly woman provide a glimpse into the private life of a beloved public figure, the world's most charismatic rebel, Ernesto Che Guevara.The story begins quietly, in the narrative voice of a young Cuban woman who lives in contemporary Miami.

These bare facts plus a few lines from a poem by Pablo Neruda are her only key to her mother, her father, her history, and the history of her country. When a package arrives one day, addressed to her, the crumbling letters and fragile photos it contains allow her to piece together the story of her mother, a youthful affair, and the child she bore by a handsome rebel.…
