Paperback. Condition: Very Good. NATIONAL BESTSELLER The world has changed in the wake of the #MeToo movement. What comes next? Going beyond the message of Lean In and The Confidence Code, Joanne Lippman, Gannett's Chief Content Officer, offers solutions to help professionals solve gender gap issues and achieve parity at work in this inclusive and realistic handbook. Newly updated by the author to include a cheat sheet for taking positive action now, this timely, essential book also offers tools for having tough--but necessary--discussions. Companies with more women in senior leadership perform better by virtually every financial measure, and women employees help boost creativity and can temper risky behavior--such as the financial gambles behind the 2008 economic collapse. Yet in the United States, ninety-five percent of Fortune 500 chief executives are men, and women hold only seventeen percent of seats on corporate boards. More men are reaching across the gender divide, genuinely trying to reinvent the culture and transform the way we work together. Despite these good intentions, fumbles, missteps, frustration, and misunderstanding continue to inflict real and lasting damage on women's careers. What can the Enron scandal teach us about the way men and women communicate professionally? How does brain circuitry help explain men's fear of women's emotions at work? Why did Kimberly Clark blindly have an all-male team of executives in charge of their Kotex tampon line? In That's What She Said, veteran media executive Joanne Lipman raises these intriguing questions and more to find workable solutions that individual managers, organizations, and policy makers can employ to make work more equitable and rewarding for all professionals. Filled with illuminating anecdotes, data from the most recent relevant studies, and stories from Lipman's own journey to the top of a male-dominated industry, That's What She Said is a book about success that persuasively shows why empowering women as true equals is an essential goal for us all--and offers a roadmap for getting there. This essential book moves beyond the blame game to offer a clear, actionable guide for men and women to build a better workplace together, including: Unconscious Bias: Discover why well-intentioned people still make biased decisions, and learn proven techniques to de-bias hiring, promotions, and daily interactions. Men as Allies: Move beyond the "men are the enemy" narrative with concrete strategies that bring men into the conversation, showing why gender parity benefits everyone. Closing the Gender Pay Gap: Understand why women often don't ask for a raise--and what managers can do right now to ensure fair compensation and equal opportunity. Gender Dynamics at Work: Explore real-world case studies from Enron to the tech industry that reveal how men and women communicate differently, and what to do to bridge that divide. Women in Leadership: Get a practical roadmap for organizations to empower women, remove systemic barriers, and achieve true parity in the C-suite and beyond.…

Hardback. Condition: Good. #1 Washington Post Bestseller First things first: There will be no man shaming in That's What She Said. A recent Harvard study found that corporate "diversity training" has actually made the gender gap worse--in part because it makes men feel demonized. Women, meanwhile, have been told closing the gender gap is up to them: they need to speak up, to be more confident, to demand to be paid what they're worth. They discuss these issues amongst themselves all the time.  What they don't do is talk to men about it.  It's time to end that disconnect. More people in leadership roles are genuinely trying to transform the way we work together, because there's abundant evidence that companies with more women in senior leadership perform better by virtually every measure. Yet despite good intentions, men often lack the tools they need, leading to fumbles, missteps, frustration and misunderstanding that continue to inflict real and lasting damage on women's careers. That's What She Said solves for that dilemma.  Filled with illuminating anecdotes, data from the most recent studies, and stories from Joanne Lipman's own journey to the top of a male-dominated industry, it shows how we can win by reaching across the gender divide. What can the Enron scandal teach us about the way men and women communicate professionally? How does brain chemistry help explain men's fear of women's emotions at work? Why did Kimberly Clark have an all-male team of executives in charge of their Kotex tampon line? What can we learn from Iceland's campaign to "feminize" an entire nation? That's What She Said shows why empowering women as true equals is an essential goal for women and men--and offers a roadmap for getting there. That's What She Said solves for: ·         The respect gap ·         Unconscious bias ·         Interruptions ·         The pay and promotion gap ·         Being heard ·         The motherhood penalty ·         "Bropropriation" and "mansplaining" ·         And more.   &nbsp.…

Hardback. Condition: Good. A personal, journalistic ethnography of the modern American working class, based on the travels and interactions of the author through the American heartland."Second Class is the most important book you will read all year. A political realignment is coming, and it?s my hope that the end result will work in favor of our all-too-neglected American working class. When that realignment comes, Batya and her book will help lead the way."?Greg Lukianoff, CEO of the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education, and co-author of The Coddling of the American MindWho is the American working class? Do they still have a fair shot at the American Dream? What do they think about their chances to secure the hallmarks of a middle-class life? While writing this book, Batya Ungar-Sargon visited states across the nation to speak with members of the American working-class fighting tooth and nail to survive. In Second Class, working-class Americans of all races, political orientations, and occupations share their stories?cleaning ladies, health care aides, cops, truck drivers, fast food workers, electricians, and more. In their own words, these working-class Americans explain the struggles and triumphs of their increasingly precarious lives?as well as what policies they think would improve them. Second Class combines deep reporting with a look at the data and expert opinion on America?s emergent class divide, in which the most basic elements of a secure and stable life are increasingly out of reach for those without a college education. America has broken its contract with its laboring class. So, how do we get back to the American Dream? How do we once again become the land of opportunity, the promised land where hard work and commitment to family are enough to protect you from poverty? It?s not that hard actually. All it would take, as this book illustrates, is for those in power to once again respect the dignity of work?and the American worker.…
